I Signed Consent Today!

I met with the surgeon and signed consent and paid my $300 program fee. Everything is now being sent to the insurance company. The lady told me it could take up to two weeks to get insurance approval but, I think my husband's approval only took 3 days. So, somewhere between 3 days and two weeks before I can get a surgery date. :)

 

I am thinking that I am going to start the pre-surgical diet on Monday. They said to start it two weeks before surgery but, since I'm not 100% clear when that will be, I figure every pound I lose between now and then is a good thing. I guess we will be doing some massive kitchen cabinet purging this weekend! :)

I self-paid. What is a program fee? What does it do/cover?
