  1. I started my first weight management class in june and had my last class on nov. 17th. I called the doctors office on the 29th and asked if they'd heard from my insurance (bcbs of texas). She said she would give them a call. She called back and said i was approved! She said i should've received my letter.( i haven't received it yet), but i start my pre op diet and docs visit on the 6th. My surgery is scheduled for dec. 20th. I'm really nervous about the pre op diet. I pray i won't cheat, or feel weak or sick. My surgeon is dr. Scarborough at tlc surgery in houston,tx. I'm sooo ready!!!
  2. I have one more weight mgt. class next week and if approved I will not tell any one. The only person that knows is my sister that lives out of town. I told her not to tell the rest of our family including our parents because I know they would tell others and I'm just not ready for all the feed back or begging me not to do it. My two best friends live out of town and I haven't told them either. I don't know who will drive me to and from the hospital yet. I guess I will have to let someone know who can drive me. I only plan on telling others I'm dieting and exercising. Maybe after time passes I will be able to admit to surgery but for now I'll just keep quiet about my decision.
  3. Yes I have two more weight management classes and if approve Dr. Scarborough will do my surgery
