Just got my approval letter in the mail. Just waiting to hear from my dr. to set up a date. can't wait to get this going!

I have UHC too. They were great all along. It's really good that they send you to a Center of Excellence for WLS. You read some surgeon horror stories on this board. If you have to travel for your surgery, they will pay for hotel, etc.

Oh really I didn't know that!! My center of excellence is only about 30 minutes from my house. Yes they have been worderful! My case nurse is awesome her name is Kelly and she has helped out a ton!

Congratulations!!! Your new chapter will be extremely rewarding. It will be tough at times, but after 2 1/2 months I feel amazing! I wish for you a smooth process. :-)
