Anyone scheduled for February 2018???

I'm halfway done with all of my appointments and super nervous. Mostly about the approval. Other than that, just excited to be so close to changing my life! What's your date??? How are you feeling about it???

So, I still have a few appointments. I'm cutting it really close. But I did get some good news today. I was so anxious that I called my insurance company and turns out I got approved yesterday. That means I'm moving forward with my 2/7 date and I couldn't be happier.

Now that that's out the way...what kind of protein water are you guys going to use? What will you be consuming post-op???

I am in the northern most city of Alaska, Barrow. I travel to San Antonio and then get picked up and driven across the border to Piedras Negras Mexico! Ready to start this journey. :)


Holy cow that's a LOT of traveling. I have a sister in law in Piedras negra!!!
