Ok went to the doctor's office today to follow up on my pre-op labs. I am anemic and he had concerns and thought about postponing the surgery for a couple of weeks. Thankfully he isn't (though he is going to transfuse me prior to surgery) and I am still getting banded on the 9th. YEA!!!I only have less than a week left on the pre-op diet, which has been very hard. At least I have lost 13 pounds on the pre-op diet so far!!

I have been going through the same thing. The closer to surgery the harder it is to eat right. During the 6 month supervised diet I initially lost 32 lbs but the last month I gained 7 of it back. Not happy about that part, but I still keep trying to eat good instead of giving up. I am looking forward to getting banded and being able to loose this weight for good.

I am hoping for May too. I finish up my 6 month diet in April then submit to insurance for approval. Fingers crossed for a quick approval.

6 month waiting period
kris7 replied to Secret Bandit's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I too am in the middle of the 6 month diet per insurance. It has been hard to wait, but I am glad that I am doing it. I feel it has helped me be better prepared for eating after the band. The bonus is that in changing my eating habits I have lost over 25 pounds in the last 3 months. I still have 2 more meetings, plus the pre-op diet. I hope to be banded in May sometime. Good luck on the diet and it will fly by. -
Hi there. My name is Kris and I live in Glendale, AZ. I am new to this sight. I started going through the process of getting banded back in October 2010. I am 3 months into the insurance mandatory diet with 3 months to go. I am hoping to get banded in May after I take finals for school. I am currently in my 3rd semester of nursing school. I am excited about getting banded.
