daco525 0 Posted May 11, 2009 I finally made it. It felt like I was never going to get to this point when I started this journey back in November. Everything was submitted to insurance last week and today I got the phone call from the surgeon's office that I was approved. I was worried since I have a BMI under 40 but I do have co-morbidities. I am scheduled for the lap band on June 3rd. I already feel like this is the beginning of a new me. For all of you just starting out stick with it...jump threw all the hoops that the insurance company requires...what a wonderful feeling when the approval finally comes through.
