Sorry I can't help you with the Cigna question, dispatchman, but I do want to wish you all the best in your journey.  Keep us posted and good luck with the insurance issue.  Please know, it is my personal opinion that insurance companies try to make the WLS approval process as difficult as possible so whatever you do, don't give up!  Give us a shout if we can help.

Topic: Where's your turkey?
....mine is still in the freezer and won't get cooked until after the first of the year.  This Thanksgiving my sweetheart hubby and I are traveling to Farmington to spend the holiday with my entire family (dipping my fingers in holy water, forming the sign of the cross and grabbing the Rosary beads).   Like most families, mine has its trouble makers and drama queens but I'm hoping and praying that this year all the dramas and b*tching can be put aside... well, put aside until after dinner and then the gloves come off!  What does everyone else have planned for the holiday?  What ever your plans, may you have a safe and wonderful holiday.... and, Kelly, if I call you at 1:00 a.m. Friday morning don't ask questions, just come with the bail money, they'll never find that trouble makers body!!!  hehehe.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Hi Carol, good luck with your surgery and take some good slippers and soft PJ's to the hospital.  The hospital staff is very nice and anything you want, need or answered they will do for you. They made me walk like as soon as I woke up in my room. My DH stayed at the ...

Hilton Garden Inn El Paso

111 W University Ave
  El Paso, TX, 79902 866-539-8430

The staff was awesome and It is a few blocks from the hospital. They have a nice workout room and room service was very reasonable. The bed was a little hard for me but my husband liked it and since he stayed there while I was in the hospital that was ok. I slept on it the night before my surgery so I might have tossed and turned anywhere. :  ) I think they give a discount for Del Sol patients.
Good luck and keep us posted.
Debbie

Carol, what wonderful news!!!  I'm sure you are going to do great and those pounds are going to be jumping off your body! 

As far as El Paso goes....  They have some great shops to check out and there is a huge outlet mall on the north end of El Paso.  My hubby loves to go to the Lucchese Boot store off of Montana and pick up on smoken boot deals! 

Good luck, stay in touch and see ya' soon on the loser's bench!

Topic: Cigna??
Last week Thursday, my paperwork (6 months worth) was submitted to Cigna to approve a lapband procedure. Has anyone had experience with them. How quick are they to approve. Open to recommendations.

Topic: Surgery Date!
I can't believe it's finally here.  Call from Del Sol Wednesday night.... surgery date is DECEMBER 2!.  If anyone has any suggestions for being in El Paso for a week, and with Dear Hubby, please let me know!

Topic: Old Navy, Gap Friends & Family 30% off Coupon
Hey everyone!

I posted a few weeks ago about the 30% off to friends & families of Gap Inc. I only had a limited amount given to me but now I was able to get a copy that can be used in the stores.

The sale is now through sunday & it's good for 30% off your entire order, as often as you want to shop. I had to remove the online code because this original was sent to someone else so you can't use it online.

But you can walk into any store all weekend long & use it!

I would love to share this with you. Please send me a PM w/ your EMAIL address if you'd like one.

Hope you have a fabulous weekend!
