I got my insurance approval on the first shot!
Hey ya'll,
Just wanted to let everyone know that I am approved for my surgery and will meet with my surgeon on the 20th to set a date and get my blood gases and work up done. I'm very excited and can hardly wait. I'm hoping for an early date in December. Can anyone who's had Lap-band tell me what the recovery time is before you went back to work? My boss and I were discussing it tonight and looking at my return to work.

Congratulations on getting approved - I have heard that recovery time is only a week or so and no heavy lifting for a while but my advice to you would be to take as much time as you think you can get to get rested and used to the new eating regime.... that can take longer than the actual surgery recovery...
Good luck and keep us posted...

Counting the 2 week liver shrinking diet, I have lost 46 pounds in 4 weeks and can't keep my pants up even after adding a hole in the belt.
good luck.
