Hi! I'm kind of in the middle of the approval process. I've done everything on the surgeon's end of things. Now everything is off to insurance (Anthem BCBS-TN) and I'm awaiting official approval. Then comes surgery date! I'm hoping November (just in time for the holidays! :thumbup:) I'm 26 yo and weigh 235 (I'm also 5'0!!!) I take meds for depression, hypertension, and tachycardia. Hopefully ALL of these issues will be resolved with weight loss. I'm really nervous, scared, excited, etc! I look forward to learning and sharing with all of you!
