WOW! that was quick... My consult was on 2/11 and I havent heard anything back yet. Congratulations! -
I have had surgery before and I think its normal to be a little nervous or scared as you get closer to the big day. I have had a breast reduction and a tonselectomy and cried both times! Congrats on your band date! (You too DonnaB) <<<< wants hers! :guess

3loves, I also just decided in mid to late Jan that I wanted it done! Maybe i should call my insurance too. I called the Dr's office today and they just said they were still waiting on approval and that they (UHC) has 30 days to make a decision. I was like oh hurry up already!

Sorority ChiK replied to skbishop78's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I had my consult on Saturday, they told me to start a pre-op diet for this reason! Honestly, I was like if i could diet right and loose the weight on my own, i wouldnt be here! -
Sure is! You need to check on that....

I admit, I have no discipline at all when it comes to food...I can tell you im on a diet and be eating cookies 5 minutes later. :hungry:

Hello All, I have just been reading some of the threads and looking at some of the pics and its inspiring. I go for my seminar/consultation tomorrow and I am both excited and nervous at the same time. I look forward to chatting with you all... SC

no problem... im 29 and per the scale saturday, i weighed 267 and my BMI was 46...I also have high blood pressure which i know is caused by the weight...no kids, no hubby. I want to loose about 80lbs.. about 185 is good for me. I have always been "thick-a-licious" (that's what some of my friends call me) so I dont want to be small... a nice size 12 is good enough for me.

I probably will call. I have HMO also and was told they cover 90/10; that max I will have to pay is $2000 out of pocket but they were still in talks with them.
