I am a newbie and I made the decision back in august that I was going to have the surgery done. Well as for me It was really a breeze I schedule the information seminar back on 8/08/13 and the next day the dr appointment my BMI was at 34.6 so I couldn't get it done so the dr didn't submit it in fact he told me to come back once I reach 35 so I went back in at the end of August and I was at 35.7. My Dr scheduled all my appointments, majority in the same day and schedule for my surgery Oct 3... As of Tuesday I was finished with all my dr appointments and it was submitted to my insurance bcbs of ga well yesterday I got the call I was approved and now it just got REAL post op appt is Monday lab work Tuesday n surgery Thursday... So I have been reading n will now join in GoodLuck everyone n keep me in your family prayers THANKS
