Now is the time

Monday I go to have my initial visit with my lap band surgeon....I just got my "reminder" phone call from the Doc office. I am so excited to be able to tell him that I have the support of my other Dr's. I can almost hear it now..."Yes, your insurance has approved your request and your surgery date is on". I finally feel like I can accept that this may really happen. I tried several years ago to be approved RNY and my insurance company wanted no part of it. So...for now I will chalk it up to that it wasn't the right time and that everything happens for a reason...and I am ok with that. :lol:

Yes the supervised diet just started so I have five more months....so I still have a long way to go before I can be approved.....but even though it's still months away I feel very positive that the doors will continue to open for me.....Hey....it will finally feel good to finally fit through them for a change :lol:
