Whoo Who after 18 months, 2 insurance companies, and a loss of 70lbs on WW, the doctor's office just called and asked me to pick a date 4/14 4/21 or 4/28. !! I nearly fainted. I picked 4/28 cause I need time to get things ready at home. Then I asked about the pre op diet that they drilled into me 9mths and they where like no big deal about it. which has left me a little confused. I guess I should call back the office and ask for more details but they said I could use opti-fast. Help... Oh yeah how do you add those cool tickers to your sign on ..... am i just babbling ??? sorry I am kinda of exicted and scared at the same time I mean its just 3 weeks a way. :biggrin2:

Congratulations , I very excited for you. I was banded on April 1st and my process was a lot easier than some I have read about on the forum. I visited a True Results Center in Atlanta on February 6, 2008 for a Free Diagnostic. After my Psych Eval, Nutrition Consultation, and blood work my package was sent to the Insurance Company BCBS of Georgia. I was approved on March 15, 2008 and my surgery was scheduled for April 1st. Every thing really seemed to go very fast so enjoy this pre-surgery time. Because the post op diet of liquids only is no fun!!!!

Congratulations!! Wow, 70 lbs down from WW already -- what a great start, and now, with the band, you likely won't rebound from that loss.

There's a sticky thread somewhere about how to do the tickers... maybe do a Search on ticker.
