Drum Roll Please...I just heard that I am approved by insurance!

My insurance has approved me and I have chosen the date of January 26th to get my surgery done. That will be 5 months from the time I got my heart stints and I still have to wait for the cardiologist to approve but I am pretty sure he will!

Now I can actually get excited and start the countdown to what should be a life changing decision. I guess I have to go make me a countdown ticker!!!!

I have decided that just before surgery I am going to have my husband take his most unflattering picture and that way I will have it to compare with a year from now.

It's actually not as hard as j expected it to be. Honestly. I am hungry but I'm head hungry. I see something that looks good or I smell something and I want it but think of it like this. You can always do something for a short period of time.

That's wonderful news @@MIMISAN!

Congrats!
