New; not so new

Hope you get approved!!!! Don't give up, especially because you have medical issues other than over weight! I don't understand why they refuse to take it out if it's causing more problems to your health. Are you in a weight loss program? or will you need to join one to have gastric bypass? I had to go through a weight loss program again because I'm getting my surgery in a different hospital than the Lapband and also that was a very long time ago

I just got the best news today..... My surgery is March 19th. I'm so stoked!! Took a month and a half but can't wait. I've been doing the high Protein, low carb, and don't eat any fast food.

Congratulations!!!!!! I'm very happy for you!!!! So they are removing the Lapband and doing the gastric bypass in the same surgery?????

Yeah that's the plan unless the procedure doesn't go as plan. But he says that rarely happens
