Hi you guys! I'm new to this site and haven't posted much but I've been reading and learning a whole lot. There's so much info here and I'm so grateful that there are so many people willing to share their experiences. I think I'm well prepared to take this journey.

That being said.....I got the insurance letter today. I'm approved!!! :clap2:

I just felt like I had to share with you all. It's such a great feeling. I mean to know that soon I'm going to be watching the scale go down instead of up. HA! Does mine even go in that direction?

Anyway, according to the letter my surgery is on the 19th. I'm going to call the surgeons office on Monday to confirm that. Ugh that reminds me, I'm going to have to start the dreaded pre-op diet by Friday. So NOT looking forward to that! Oh well, it will all be worth it in by surgery day.

Well, thanks for sharing in my excitement. I look forward to getting to know you guys.

Congrats! How exciting! I have my first appointment with my surgeon on Friday, and hope to get an idea of how long of a wait I have until I am in your shoes:) Best of luck to you, and congratulations!
