Topic: Lap-Band surgery on November 12th
I am so exicted....I received the call today....
I have so many thoughts I don't know where to start so I will just say that I am so grateful to the Bariatric staff at South San Francisco (SSF), CA Kaiser Permanente for their great program. I have learned so much about myself since I started my journey in April of this year. The lifestyle classes are an excellant source of information from the professionals and the post-op patients. I go to these classes every month at the Point West Kaiser in Sacramento, CA. Since I live in Sacramento that is the best location for me. I will have the surgery in SSF Kaiser.
I will post more soon.
LOL,

Were are you located? You can go to the board for were you are located and post a question there about it and you should get some responses. If not your surgeons office should have a list of ones near you.
Topic: November 6 is my new birthday!
I have my date! Tuesday, November 6!
Insurance took 3 days to approve. What a shocker. They wanted me to lose 30 pounds prior to surgery and I'm already down 20.
Who else is on the 6th?
