6 month countdown starts May 27th

I went ahead and called my insurance company to see what hoops I have to jump through. I was hoping that I wouldn't have to do the 6 month diet... but I do.

So to begin that I made an appointment with a weight loss doctor that's actually the wife of one of the surgeons. I figure if anyone knows what kind of documentation my insurance company needs, she'd be the one.

I need to low carb anyway. I lose weight on it and it really helps my PCOS symptoms when I don't eat sugar.

Sounds like you've got a good plan. I hope the 6 months passes quickly.
