It's been a long long at times depressing process but yesterday I finally got my approval!!!!

Hopefully next week I'll have a surgery date!

I just can't believe it's here. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted.

That's awesome. Persistence paying off. Good luck!

Oh my gosh, how exiting! It will be even more satisfying knowing you worked so hard to get there. Congrats!

Congratulations!! I read your topic line and it gave me goosebumps. I too had the two denials and then medical review via phone. It took 11 months from start to finish, but oh so worth the effort. It will be 2 years in December and this has changed my life. No more meds, no longer have migraines, foot pain, acid reflux etc.I am able to and enjoy a 5 day a week workout regimen but I have new issues now, :-) I WANT plastics.. Free ones of course. This is the best gift you can ever give yourself. Run with it.

Thank you Happy!!!

I look forward to being able to work out without far getting in the way, bouncing every where and sweating like a pig.

The only time I don't feel like that is when I'm swimming. And honestly the only thing I will miss about my fat is how great I can float. Lol.
