Thanks so much!!! I did 3 months, and I'm so nervous and ready to start this new chapter in my life, I know it will be hard but so worth it!!! I can use all the band buddies I can get I'm sure this is going to be a rollercoaster rides!!! ;-)

So excited for you! Don't be nervous, I'm sure you will be fine. Good luck and I can't wait to hear your good news!! THINK POSITIVE!!

Sending positive thoughts your way. I am finally at the end of my six month supervised time for Aetna. My thyroid was one point to high and I've had to take thyroid meds for the last month before we can submit because dr.'s office said insurance will turn it down unless thyroid is in normal levels. Getting checked in the morning hope levels are good :)

Me too! My paperwork was submitted to Aetna on the same day, October 16th. I called Aetna today and I am still in review. They said they have a 14 day window to approve or disapprove. (They better hurry up, I am supposed to be scheduled for October 31st, I hope it doesn't get delayed!

Yeah they said mine was still in review also!!!! I really hope it doesn't take the full 14 days!!! The surgeons office put that my surgery date was 10/24/12....I guess that is just an estimated date.

Well maybe you will good news tomorrow!!!

Well once they submit it takes 48 hours just to make a file, at least that's what happened to me. I'm hoping it doesn't take the full time frame because a lot of people on the forum said there's was approved quickly.

Lololol!!! Thanx!!! I like to read, surf the net go out, an I absolutely love shopping!!!! But I've put that on hold until I start losing weight. I plan on learning how to sew and get a machine I know that might come in handy with the weight loss!!! What about you, what are your hobbies?

I love shopping as well but i hate trying on clothes!!! All because of the weight gain.. ummm. I like to listen to music, play with my step children and cook ;-) Its great that you are looking in to sewing.. That definatley seems like a great idea to help cut down on cost during your beautiful transition Let wait and wait and wait because you are definately going to get a BIG FAT YES!!!!! Any upcoming sewing classes?
