My original surgery date was April 1st --- which is funny, because it did end up being an April Fools joke. Half way through the pre-op diet and one week prior to surgery, we found out that my insurance had an exclusion for out-of-network bariatric services. EIGHT MONTHS I had been with this surgery group and we find out just days before the date. It was like being pregnant for 8 1/2 months, buying new nursery items, changing my diet, going to a zillion check-ups only to be told "Actually, you're not having a baby after all". Anyway, the very same day I contacted an in-network provider and my surgery has been re-scheduled almost one month to the day of the original date.

All things happen for a reason! I have my pre-op appointment this afternoon, and I'm getting REALLY excited!!

I am glad everything worked out ok.

Just think of the additional small wait as time to do a little more preparing for the VSG and the new you.

I'm glad they rescheduled it.

I'm glad they rescheduled it.

I meant I'm glad that they could reschedule it.

Hi Lisa, hope you are continuing to heal well and get stronger each day. How can I be added to the Facebook group?
