The dietician told me my surgery should be in Jan. I'm doing the 6 month required appointments for insurance purposes. It seems so far away right now - but it will be here before I know it.

It seems I've been set back a bit. They won't let me start my supervised weight loss and management until September. I'm going to try and badger them into starting sooner. There is such a backlog... I will be calling in daily for a intake date. Good luck to you all. I hope that things still work out that January is my month but it's looking more like March! Be well!

My time is flying by also. I thought I would go nuts waiting but it is going super fast so far. Lets hope it keeps going this fast! The hard part will be Thanksgiving and Christmas time - I'm a little worried about that!

Good luck to both of you!! I'm kinda just throwing myself here as well. I posted in the Dec 07 board too because that is when I HOPE to have surgery. Long story, but I have insure which has to come in after i resubmitted paperwork to them- that should be in by mid August...and then ha- I still have to start everything from scratch. (I went through ALL of this 2 years ago for lab band and found out too late into it that my insurence did not cover it- it was a BIG let down) So here I am again! lol...Well Dec/Jan will be idea for me because my college lets out in Dec, and if need be I would take off the next quater and go back in April to give myself time to heal properly. Plus my B-day is Jan 7th- so i see as it being an awesome X-mas/ B-day gift to me I wish everyone here the best of luck! With the way time flys January will be here in no time!! I feel like it was yesterday thatI started this whole process for WLS the first time and- holy moly that was 2 years ago exactly on August 1st!! WOW! lol Good luck all!! Robin

I am right there with you! I just started my 6 month supervised diet that is required by insurance. Gosh, January 2008 seems like a long ways away!! I sure hope it gets here fast. I hope all your dreams come true!
