These are my current photos that I'm hoping will become my "Before" photos that I can look back on and say "Thank God I'm past that!"

Hi everyone :crying: My name is Stephanie, I'm 23 (ugh...) and I live in AZ :tt2: ok cheesy intro aside, I'm new to the idea of WLS and I'm super excited but a little scared too. My DH just got a new job so our insurance won't even kick in until October BUT I called the insurance co we WILL have (BCBS-ppo) and gave them my hubby's emplorer's group # and they confirmed that WLS is covered!!! YAY!!!! Right now I'm just trying to figure out who the best surgeon to go see is. Any recomendations? I work from home and have very few friends here in AZ since this is not where I grew up and I don't get out much, so I could really use some pals to go through this with me Good luck to you all!!!

Hi all :crying: I'm new here and I swear I've gone through about a million pages of threads looking for this information. I'm trying to find out if anyone with BCBS of ARIZONA (PPO) got approved or denied? I want to know :wink2: Good, bad, or whatever! Thanks so much!!!:thumbup:
