You might need to say big okie,,, and maybe next year we can refer to me as little okie...lol. I live in the very southeast corner of Okla. So yes, that's kinda close to Texarkana. It's about a hour away. I work in DeQueen, AR and it only takes me about 18 min to get to work. I'm excided for you. You have waited so long. I noticed you have been trying to get this approved since April. Only if you have time, would you tell me why it took so long for your insurance to approve? I haven't even started the approval yet so I'm afraid it will be a while for me, but the insurance company told me after I send in all of my test result (having them all done on Jan 8th) I should have an answer within two weeks. Is this wishful thinking on my part?

lol!!! I'm ready.... Jamie called me today to go over everything. She told me I would have to be on the liquid diet before and after. Yuk.... You take care of yourself:bored ! What part of texas are you from?

Lisa G. · 12-29-2006, 08:29 PM

I know you can do the liquid diet. I did, if can anyone can. Just think about how much healthier you will be.

I live in the contry, but close to Mt. Pleasant. MP is about 60 miles from Texarkana.
later,
lisa

lisa remember i'm just down the road if you need me

I know I'm gonna try my best, but I know it will be hard. A friend of mine just had her surgery done @ Dallas and he had her do an atkins diet 10 days before and she lost the 10 lbs required. I was hoping I could do that and then the liquid diet after. But then again I guess doing the liquid diet after would be easier if you done got use't to it. I'm sure I will survive.... Hope you r still feeling okay....

I don't have a surgery date yet. I have all of my testing on Jan 8th and will go from there on the surgery date. I have to be approved by the insurance company. I hope it wont be long afterwards. I meet all of the criteria just have to clear everything else. Have you heard from Lisa G today? I don't see where she has been on here. I hope she is still doing good. Your husband is planning to have the LAP-BAND^® done. right? My husband could use it and I hope if I do well he will consider it too. You and I have about the same start weight. I'm sure I gained some over Christmas. If I don't watch it I will gain 5 lbs or more a week.
