Well, I met with my primary care doc yesterday and am very pleased. He is 100% behind my decision to follow through with this. I was concerned about the 6 months of doctor monitored dieting but he says that because I have been seeing him regularly since April for my weight, I am already 3 months into it and he will continue to see me monthly for another 3 months as he feels it will take that long to get a date.

My husband is furious as the doctor for supporting me. He asked what the doctor said and when I told him, he would not speak anymore about it. Wait until he finds out I have to pay out of pocket to see the dietician today! Oh well, this is for ME and my health for my KIDS!!!:wink:

Glad you found out about the 6 months now! I found out two weeks before I was supposed to have the surgery. I have to wait another 4 months and then couldn't continue because of weddings and many many other events. Luckily the day came on June 23. I haven't looked back. Congrats to you and your new healthy self :)

I'm sorry your husband has not been supportive of your decision.I hope he comes around and sees this is for your health. I'm having my surgery on July 23 after a long fight with my insurance co. Good Luck!

Greetings: I live in Kingsville, MD and was banded on June 6th by Dr. Moe at GBMC. Things have been perfect since the surgery. I do wish you luck. Email me if I can answer any questions for you.
