I also found out today that I am approved. I hope to get my surgery date on Monday. I am so excited but yet so nervous. I can't believe that I am actually going to finally get the lapband. Yea!!!!

Same to you! I am in Wichita Falls, TX which is about 2 hours west of Dallas. Where are you located? Are you thinking that your date will be at the beginning of November?

I found out today, 10/24, I am APPROVED !!!! Paper work has to hit the Dr. office before they will actually schedule, but I'm hoping for Nov. 20 or Dec. 11. Sooner the better I say. I'm worried I will really miss the food, especially for those two weeks pre opt. I go for my Nutrition 4 hour class on Monday night. At least I'll know more after that. Right now, I seem to want to eat everything I think I won't have later. Not a good pre opt plan.

Good luck to ya'll too. Let's "band" together.

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
