You look amazing!

Thank you all so much. All of your words are very re-assuring. I am so so excited. For the most part I am a very positive person, the insurance issue just rests in te back of my mind because I tried to get my insurance to cover a weight loss pill and they wouldn't so I was a bit skeptical as to why they would cover a 15 thousand dollar operation. To hear this feedback gives me hope

I just went for my endoscopy yesterday, I now only have two more nutrition appointments and I will get my surgery date. I am so excited but a little nervous that my insurance will not cover it because I have no major medical concerns, my bmi is just really high. I have united health care and their requirements are a bmi of 40 and over to be covered but you never can tell. Has anyone else not had any medical issues and were covered by insurance just for a high bmi?

I'm also sooo anxious and have never wanted anything so bad, I feel like I have researched over and over again. I am beyond ready for this. I have my endoscopy tomorrow, one more nutrition apt, then I get my date! It seems so far away but worth the wait I'm sure
