On track for November...

Had my second dietician visit yesterday. She said that by the next time I see her (9/30), I will have all of my other insurance requirements met already. We will set a tentative surgery date and will schedule a meeting with the surgeon (in October).

How exciting!!!! My date is Oct. 7th. Cannot get here soon enough.

Agreed!! Though I'm sure it'll be here before we know it!!

I sure hope so. I am trying to stay busy and keep my mind off of it 'till Sept. 7th so I can start 30 day countdown!!! Lol.

Saying it's only 30 days from Sept 7th makes it sound SO much sooner (at least to me )! I can't wait until I have a definite date...

Once you go to the last NUT visit things go crazy fast from that point.

I will finish my 6 visits with the GP on the 5th of Noember. They have all my paper work and tests ready to send to Medicare for approval. Hoping it's a short wait, my nut said medicare has to respond withi 14 days. Then it will just be scheduling waiting.

I will be having my second dietician visit on Wednesday! I am scheduled for surgery on November 11th. How did your first month go? I haven't really been super focused yet until I realized my surgery is in 70 days.

That's exactly how I felt about a month ago!!! I am just about a week out from my 30 day countdown. I have just been focusing on all the positives in my life......and remembering all the experiences the overweight me, that I am right now, is going to help shape me into the more beautiful, healthy me I am about to become. I always want to be who I am... Just a smaller version.

That's awesome that you already have a surgery date!!

I'm down 16 lbs since July 9th, or down 10 from my first dietician visit on July 22nd. I'm supposed to lose 25 lbs before surgery.
