After a long 6 month wait, while meeting all my insurance requirements, my wait is finally over. I got the call today that I am approved for surgery on April 24th. My surgery will be done by Dr. Dat Nguyen at the Valley Care Medical Center in Pleasanton, CA. I am 28 5"4 and will be app 228 the day of surgery. My goal weight is 145 and my ultimate goal is pregnancy as I have pcos. Looking forward to my dream coming true!

I finally got a date April 24th.. Yay :-) hope the rest of your get yours soon

28 female Current weight 238 Goal weight 145 Height 5"4 No surgery date yet just waiting for the call. Insurance is blue cross blue shield of Pennsylvania ppo

I've been trying to call them all day today to see when I can get a date. I'm so excited I just want it to be over with already lol I live in tracy ca and all my family is in ohio so hopefully I can utilize the support group valley care offers :-)

I'm seeing dr Nguyen as well and using valley care as well I have my ore op class on the 20th this month. I attended the nutrition class last week.

Annie I know just what your going through I was told I had to be smoke free for 3 months before surgery my last one was 01-3-13 I took chantix for 3 weeks and it really helped me get over that initial hump but now that I'm on low carb diet the last 10 days I've been having that nagging craving. I've found that electronic cigarettes help me. My surgeon allows you to use them so you may want to ask and try those it took a few brands until I found one I liked.

Thank you I really hope so. I just want a date already lol after no smoking and low carbs I'm just ready to do this already :-)

So I just rescheduled my last visit with my pcp for today. After jumping through all of the insurance requirements during my 6 month wait I'm really actually excited to see the scale today :-) one last class to attend on the 13th then they can submit for insurance approval. I'm looking forward to finally shedding these extra tires I've been carrying. I'm finally taking care of me for once and it feels so good. I started this journey looking to get pregnant as I have pcos and now I'm just playing the waiting game. My game plan is 2 years at a healthy weight and enjoying being thin before I try to conceive. I hope my dreams come true!!
