I finally got insurance authorization! The doctor said I will be getting the surgery some time in August. I'm so excited! I've been doing this whole process since December and finally the surgery is in sight. Wish me luck!!:biggrin2:

I would definitely like to be in a group with August banders. This is really a little exciting now instead of being nervewracking. I am glad I found this site.

I went to the doctor today and I FINALLY have a banding date: August 6th! I start all fluids tomorrow until surgery. I just can't wrap my mind around that yet, but I am excited that the big day is just around the corner.
