I am in the first stage of application.  I am almost finished gathering all the proper paper work and am waiting on my first appointment.  My insurance does cover the Lap-Band so all I need now is to finish getting the info together.  I am really excited to get this is the works.  I am going to be 50 this September and want to be on the road to a better life for the next 50.I finally had my first appt on Feb 2nd and Dr agreed that this will be a great thing for me and sent to Insurance for approval.  Now I am just waiting.  I am a planner and have to have one ready for when I am approved.  I have a copy of the "liver shrink" diet I have to follow for two weeks before surgery.  I have been planning what I'll need to do and the stuff I need to get to be ready.  Hopefully I'll hear soon if I amapproved or not.YAHOO!!!!  March 1st 2010 Received good news from Dr's office.  I was approved!!!!!  Surgery scheduled for March 22 2010.  I am freaking out, happy, excited and scared to death.  But looking forward to turning over the new leaf and having nothing but fun for the next 50.  GO GATORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
