    My surgery is August 1st! On day three of the pre-op diet =(((( It took me like four weeks after being submitted to the insurance company to find out I was actually approved because the first time they submitted my Drs office gave them the wrong info which caused me to be denied... They ended up fixing it though thank goodness! I'm nervous and hungry >.< I just want it over with already!
