I got the call on Tuesday that my insurance approved my surgery. No wait. My insurance is scheduled for May 16th, 2012. I would have it tomorrow if I could but I am going on a 15 member family cruise scheduled for mid-April and didn't want to worry about pre-op diet on a cruise. I am 5'7" and 265lbs. I will be 40 in October and refuse to be 40 and fat!

The only part I am worried about it the pre-op diet. I get pretty nasty when I'm hungry and I do marketing and presentations for a living. I hope I don't get short tempered with anyone!

I got approved Friday but the surgeons office has not called me for a date I'm so anxious. I have been going through this process since August last year so this is long over due. Congrats on your approval! I hope your trip is great! I'm worried about the diet too!

Congrats on your approval and enjoy your cruise!
