After a year and a half journey, changing hospitals and surgeons, I have today been approved for a revision from band to gastric bypass. Hooray!!!! I'm so happy, and am trying not to have 2 weeks of last supper syndrome. Nothing from surgeon's office re 2 week diet, but I'm going to try to lose back to where I was before I was told to regain in order to get insurance approval.

Scared and happy
