Should have done this first !!!!!

Well here I go telling my story after posting on this site a couple of time already. Yeah I know I can do things backwards.

Well my story goes like this.......

I'm a 27 year old wife and mother of three. I have High Blood Pressure, Minieres;s Disease and a BMI of 42.3. I have thought about having WLS for a least 3 years now. But I was one of those people who thought oh I'm young I can just diet and excercise and everything will be ok.

NOT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have to realize that it is now or never. My husband is totally behind me 100%. His only concern is me loosing my butt and boobs what a man !!

I went to a seminar for WLS surgery in Jan 2010 I had a series of things to do following that like physical therapy, Mental therapy, doctor's ok and 6 month diet attempt. I am in the 5th month of that diet attempt. So I'm at the point now where everyday I wonder if I will get approved or denied.

I'm just trying to think positive. That's pretty much it

Welcome and I hope that you hear that you have been approved. I know how you feel I also started my process in Jan and had all kinds of doctor appointments and was waiting to hear from insurance. so Good luck.

You will make it. It just takes time, and you;re doing the right things. Best of luck.
