Boy was I relieved. Don't mean to sound like a baby but I really wasn't looking forward to going through this alone and out of state at that, though I was prepared to do it anyway (the doctors didn't recommend coming alone).

Just wanted to share my good news with you guys! You've been so supportive. I start my pre-op diet 5/30 and I'm getting excited! Good luck to all you June Bandsters!!!
Whew! Am so glad to hear this Pitter! Sounds like you have a good sister and a great mom. Best of luck with the surgery!:biggrin2:

I'm just waiting on approval and hopefully will be banded in June!
Hi, I am an attorney in South Alabama and am a Federal Gov't employee-our BCBS insurance is one of the best at covering gastric surgery. We have no waiting periods, and really don't have to show that much information except that you have a 40 BMI OR 35+ BMI with one or more co-morbidities (high blood pressure, type II diabetes, high cholesterol, high triglycerides (sp?), spleep apnea and back problems) I just do meet the 40 BMI, but do also qualify with the 35+. I'm hoping the approval will come quickly.

I've been thin all of my life, except the last 10 years (after the birthday of my 2nd child). Just haven't been able to take off the 72 pounds I gained! Yep, that's right, 72 pounds. Unbelievable I know. Anyway, am going to my class today at noon, and then it is just waiting for approval. My doc has said that I only have to do the pre-op liquid diet for 7 days instead of 2 weeks. That's good, but I wouldn't really mind doing it for 2 weeks so I would be more used to it.

My doc is Chris Dyas. Anyone else out there using him OR have used him? Would love to know your experiences with him as your surgeon.:biggrin2:

YES! I finally have a surgery date for Friday, June 27th. I'm SO excited and yet so terrified at the same time. I know that I'll be using you all as support before and after. Can't wait til I start dropping the lbs! :)

June 16th by Dr. Ortiz in Tijuana. It's a little surreal at the moment, but it sounds like I'm in a good crowd!

Smile Whew Hew!
This is my very first post and I am happy to say I got my surgery date today!!
I am going to be banded on June 11. I have researched for 2 years and finally made up my mind to attend a seminar this past weekend. Today I had my diagnostic testing and was able to wrap it all up in one afternoon.
I have been overweight all of my life and have tried every single diet, exercise program, pill, etc there is to try. I am ready to start this new chapter of my life!!!!
