Steps
The following are the steps I must take in order to have my lap band surgery. I will update this page as I move from step to step.
1. Attend an hour and a half information session, where the lap band procedure will be discussed thoroughly, and I can submit the preliminary paperwork, data and health insurance information
- Information session will be on April 1st, 2008 from 8:30am - 10:00am
2. Meet with a nutritionist who will go over my current health, any health issues (so far, thank goodness, there are none!), goals, and of course, health insurance information
3. Enroll in a six month weight loss management program, which meets for two hours each month
4. Take care of pre-op requirements: blood tests, sleep apnea test, psychological examination
5. Meet with surgeon
6. Take care of pre-admission testing (not sure what this is)
7. Surgery
