Second go round

So a year ago I completed the 6-month process for my insurance to get weight loss surgery. We were getting ready to schedule the date and I chickened out Plus on top of that a lot of stuff happened I lost my grandpa and my sister within 2 days of each other. I called today to see what I needed to get back on plan for surgery, because this time I'm so beyond ready. They said I would have to repeat the 6 month process again which I'm ok with. That helps me to get some weight off before surgery so the surgery is saver. I'm so excited for this journey but terrified of there being complications.

Thank you so much. I'm actually really glad that I'm doing the six months again. Now I'm going to be extra informed on the whole process and what to expect and also it will help me lose some weight before surgery. I know that I have a enlarged liver and I know that they like it to be smaller before surgery. So it gives me the time to hopefully get my liver happy and healthy LOL
