Is it too good to be true?

Today I spoke to the bariatric nurse at the surgery center who said that since I have been approved to enter into the case management program this means that as long as I complete my checklists within 6 months and there are no unknown medical conditions that would interfere, I have ben approved to have the lap band! They said that after I meet with the surgeon the insurance company will give the go ahead for surgery. I also have an insurance case manager who confirmed this. So now I'm waiting to schedule my medical test appointments to complete the checklist. I also gave to loose 5% and go to 2 suppor groups. I'm excited, but don't want to get my hopes up too much. It seems this dream will soon become a reality! Shop now I'm going to do what I have to to get this done. I know it will be hard, but it will be worth it!!
