mumof2boys 71 Posted May 21, 2007 Chanda, Good for you for making that call. Get this...I go to Dr. Pace and Leatherwood's office too. I usually see Mr. Jeworski and he's the one who did my paperwork for Dr. Brody. It sounds like you will be good to go real quickly. I didn't even know that Jorgina had send in my paperwork and all of a sudden I got a call from her to schedule my surgery. So...it really doesn't take much time. Good luck and keep me informed of the progress!!! Tina Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chandatay 0 Posted May 21, 2007 Ok Tina, We really have way to much in common! I noticed that we both were the same age but this is way to scary. If you tell me you live off of Middletown I will fall out of my chair. I Dr. Jeworski a tall, sort of large man? I think I meet with him last month when I went for a visit. I am not sure who I will see on Thursday, but now that you told me that I will make sure to ask for him to write the report. Chanda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mumof2boys 71 Posted May 21, 2007 OK...no need to fall out of your chair. I live off of St. Peter's Church Road. You are right though...we do have a lot in common. Mr. Jeworski is actually not a doctor. He's a nurse practitioner. I usually see him because it's easy to get an appointment and he's very nice. When I told him that I wanted to get lap band he said...I know what to do. Six months later, I was on my way to Dr. Brody's office. My insurance requires six months, so that's what we did. Anyway...everyone in that office is very helpful. Good luck and keep me informed. Tina Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gunn4ya 0 Posted May 22, 2007 Tina, You are in my back yard, I too can access my house from off of St. Peters Church Road. I live in the Pinefield Community. Seems like you are doing good. Keep up the good work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mumof2boys 71 Posted May 22, 2007 Hey Tanya...how have you been? Yes...we are neighbors. I live right near Pinefield. Small, small world, huh? I go to the Pinefield Curves, too. Do you go there? Have you ever been? I usually go on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday or Saturday. If you have never been, you should give it a try. It's quite fun (and quick).

gunn4ya 0 Posted May 22, 2007 Yes I have been to that Cruves. I had a free trial pass and went for 2 visits but have not been back. Dont ask why and I wont have to tell you that I am allergic to the gyms and lazy. Really I try to exercise on my own. I ride my bike and I swim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chandatay 0 Posted June 6, 2007 Goodmorning to the Southern Maryland Crew! Good news. I have a DATE! My new birthday will be July 12th! I am so excited and can't wait at the same time. Believe it or not GW submitted my paperwork to BCBS/Carefirst on Monday and they called on Tuesday with approval and a date! I tell you everything that my "Lapband Angel" Tina has told me has been right on the money. I took a proactive approach and in less than I month I got all the paperwork done and approved. And as Tina told me GW Hospital's staff is on point and if you do what they tell you to do the rest is on them to make it happen. Thanks to you all for the support and I will keep you posted. Now I just have to get my grocery list together and prepare for the surgery. All suggestions are welcome. Take care gang & and see you on 301 (hopefully a few pounds lighter), Chanda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chimboree26 24 Posted June 6, 2007 Big Congratulations on your date Chimboree! We will only a few days apart. WooHoo! BTW, I had made an appt. with your doctor as a backup just in GW didn't work out! Thank you. I have the countdown going...'only' 49 more days. I'm about to start shopping for the stuff I'm gonna need. I need to get some samples of the various Protein shakes and find out which ones I like before I buy a big 'ol $50 box...just to find out they're nasty!

chandatay 0 Posted June 7, 2007 I was just thinking about the shakes this morning Chimboree. I was thinking back to my Slimfast dayz and wondering if we freeze them just a little they may taste like a fake milkshake? Just a thought. Probably will go over to BJ's this weekend to stock up on a few different flavors........ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
