Congatulations! Got my fingers crossed for you, I remember the wait, the excitement when I was approved and the sick feeling in my stomach the morning I went to surgery. I am so excited for you! I agree with not telling everyone yet, I didn't tell my friends until after I was approved. My famly new because I new I was going to need their support if it wasn;t approved. But as many times as I had failed before I could not imagine what insurance company would want me to stay obese and continue to pay my health care costs. Believe me those weeks will fly by once your approved. Got to be a great feeling today.:purplebananna:

I feel for you - I used to be on pins and needles every time the dr.'s office called or the insurance people - today was the first day of my pre-op diet - i'm being banded july 5 - you'll be in my shoes soon best of luck!!!

<3 Thank you ladies both! I love the fact that there really are people who understand..... I want to tell my family but just think it's better to wait.......

@ Allison good luck and congrats on getting the band!!!! I can't wait to share with you guys once I get the approval! I pray I get it!!! <insert fingers crossed>
