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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
