I GOT APPROVED!! by Aetna, date set for Oct 6th

I just wanted to follow up, I got approved yesterday. It has been a little confusing, because I feel nervous rather than happy. but, I am sure that is normal. I know my life is going to change in a big positive way and i am happy about that . I am looking up how I can start a video blog. so i will provide the link once it is up. Thank you for those who answered my questions and have provided positive encouragement. I start the prep op diet on September 22nd.

Congratulations on your insurance approval! My paper work was finally faxed today. I am super nervous, I think the waiting is the worst part. I would love to watch your vlogs. I am on YouTube and my channel name is ilovemygoldens1.

Woot! Woot! Congrats on your new journey for a healthy lifestyle!:D

Congrats! It is perfectly normal to feel nervous.

GRATZ! Yes u will feel nervous. When I went through it.. it felt like being at the top of a roller coaster ride waiting for the big drop. Scary and ecxciting all at the same time. Now I am fighting the head hunger demons. You will do fine.

Awesome :) Be happy! It is good to be nervous, but try not to let it consume you. ((hugs))

Congratulations! I'm sure I will be nervous too when the time comes. It is a big step, but it will be for the better.

I have Aetna too. Did you do the 3 month PCP supervised diet? If yes, how many visits/charts did Aetna require from your PCP? I am trying to figure out if my very first visit will count which will make it a 2 month period, not a 3.
