So Excited!

Talked to the wonderful Cris (Dr. Erbella's nurse) and mentioned the changes in my insurance (thank you so much Jim1967 for the info) at first she told me the same information as before... 6 month wait, psych eval, dietician, and letter of recommendation from my primary care doctor. My heart fell. Then I remembered I had called my insurance company the day before and had them send me the new policy on bariatric surgery. Oh man was i excited again! She called Cigna and Jim and I were correct. I only have to wait 3 months now. Insert massive smiley face here! I am currently on my 4th month so that means as long as i get my other stuff done before August I'll most likely be able to have the surgery by the end of August. Don't you know come Monday I'm calling the psych and dietician to see if they can move up the appointments. Cris is already contacting my primary care doctor so atleast i don't have to worry about that.

On a seperate note, I bought my first ever scale today. Kids thought it was the coolest thing but when you weigh under 120 its easy to be excited. Heck if i was under 120 I'd be excited too. :o Hoping one day soon the scale will be my friend. Today wasn't the day though :blink:
