I totally understand i got my surgery date yesterday after only 1 month and 3 1/2 weeks of dr appts and all the other stuff that you have to do. I can't believe it went so quickly and my insurance is paying for it. I will be banded on Aug 19th at 7:15 Am wooooohooooo.

I was screaming in the car after the dr appt. Two months and 9 days from my first dr appt inquiring about the lap band till the sugery date that has to be a record time!!!!!! I can't even think straight I am so excited!!! Good luck to you

I just got my letter of approval from the insurance yesterday. I have my educational thing Sept the 2nd. And I hope soon after that I get the lap band. I been on a long haul of trying to get this since Dec 07.. Man its taken forever! Too long in my book. But now that I am approved in all area's I am scared! lol.. I know.. but I have never had a skinny day in my life and now this is real. I am approved and my life is going to change! OMG!! Its really happening?! Some anxiety and being excited all at the same time over this! :) I cant wait. I have prayed for this many years, since I was a child. Although then it was for vainity, now my weight has become insanity and I believe God finally answered my prayers! :thumbup: Wish me the best! :thumbup: I will keep everyone updated! :thumbup:

I know how you feel. I didn't had to see any doctors before my surgery, but I had to get my surgery financed and that took almost three weeks. When I finally got my approval I was so excited. It was my final step to get my surgery done. That's why I say "I know how you feel."

Congrats,:thumbup:

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
