Gearing up for this!

tjveggie · November 15, 2007

I am really started to get excited about this process now! I passed my psych eval a couple of weeks ago and now have a nutrition seminar to attend the week after Thanksgiving.

I start back at the gym soon, I have an appointment next week in order to help get me back on track. Its a small, personalized gym, so accountability will be a big issue......something that I completely need!

And I feel really lucky b/c I just found out today that the insurance coverage that I will have next year is one that will cover the procedure. I called the Bariatric center to make sure that it is not one of the "problematic" insurance companies.

Things are slowly falling into place.

I love reading these message boards, the questions, advice and encouragement are so wonderful!

Yea for you!! Just a little more patience and you will soon have a surgery date!

Good luck on your banding journey!

Thank you so much!

It does seem like this process takes a year, I imagine the earliest I would have the procedure is end of March/beginning of April 2008......

Best of luck to you as well, looks like you are doing amazing!

Aren't you sweet

Thanks for the compliment. I actually should be higher in my opinion. I still haven't started exercising which would make a much bigger difference. (I don't like to sweat )

I'll be starting soon now. I'm getting close to when it will start to come off slower and I will need to do ALL of my part to help the band succeed.
