gtbadkitty 0 Posted July 22, 2009 Hi everyone! I've posted a few times asking questions to help me in my decision making process... Well, I have decided that if my insurance approves it, I am going to get banded! I cannot wait. I have to wait about 2 weeks until my insurance will give my doc an answer. It's going to be hard to wait that long, but I know it will be worth it in the end. I am anxious to get all the other doc appointments scheduled and get my surgery date. I am hoping for the beginning of September. It will be my birthday present to myself. Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you for everyone that responded to my posts and to everyone that has shared their stories on these boards. You have all helped me make an informed decision on what is best for me. Thanks again and I look forward to going through this process with all of you! :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greytz 4 Posted July 23, 2009 My B'Day is in September also. I am going to visit my mother and my little mini goal is to lose 17 more pounds. That will put me in one-derland! Yeah! That is an awesome B'Day present for you and I am glad you found some decision making info in these posts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
