Ok First Life Style Class

I am a nervous wreck. Not sure why! lol It is my first official weigh in and life style class today. I see the surgeon on 9-4. I am excited too but so afraid this will not pan out. I have all of my hopes in this. I was in another meeting this week with my VERY THIN team/coworkers. I want to focus on my job and not how big I am the whole time. Anyway, I will let you know how it goes and what they provide me. I am going to UPMC MaGee Hosptial here in Pittsburgh. I have already call about my insurance and they said it would be covered if I follow the 3 month plan (Aetna POS II). We will see.... I hope the hospital does not make me go 6 months if I only need three. Fingers crossed!!!!

Good luck to you! It will be so worth it. Try not to get your hopes overly extended until you know exactly what is required to get insurance to cover it. Then, once you know, just power through each of the requirements one by one and it WILL happen. You'll find yourself where I was last week, saying "Wow! The last 6 months have gone by so FAST and I can't believe surgery is really this week!"
