  1. I'm ready!

    PaigeL posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
    I have been approved by have to wait for my first doc visit until August 14th because it's an 8 hr drive one way. I have been trying to hard to lose weight for so long and they have told me to stop trying b/c if I start losing then the insurance won't pay. Which I understand and makes sense but I have no clue how to eat without feeling guilty or watching every bite I put in my mouth. I wanted to try to do the big liquid diet that everyone is talking about to make sure I can do it so when it comes time after surgery that I have to do it for real but I'm scared to. I'm so ready for this miracle and feel so lucky that my insurance approved me so easily. Just seems like FOREVER till I get to start living again. Since I have to wait 6 months due to insurance I guess I should calm down and just let it happen...:thumbup:
