Heather, Congrats, I remember when my insurance called, I felt the same way. It is like seeing the light at the end of the tunnel :thumbup: My family is very supportive also but it is nice to have someone to talk with that is actually going through the same process I am. If you want, we can keep in touch by email, my address is doxborough@comcast.net. Deb

Thank you so much for including me in the April banders list. I really appreciate it.

Hi Heather, I remember waiting, it seemed like forever, I had to wait 8 months before I got approved because I needed to go through 6 months of nutritionist appointments, it was worth the wait though. I went to Methodist hospital in St. Louis Park, they were awesome and I am going in for my first fill next Monday. Good luck to you and keep in touch. Deb

I wanted to introduce myself and see if there are any other individuals in the Minneapolis area that are just beginning their new lifestyle. I had my surgery on April 6th and have lost 22 lbs. so far. I will be going in for my first adjustment a week from today and I am now back to eating again, the liquid diet was difficult for me but I made it through!!! I'd love to hear from anyone who is just getting started to keep in contact with. Thanks, Deb
