Very New

[Frustr8 7,886]

Oh it is, it is. After going through another program (Curses be upon Them!) not once but twice, quite a. twisted story there, I joined OSU's and I SHOULD HAVE been there from the beginning back in August 2015. 2 things bad about program# 1
They wasted my time and my insurances money And Secondly,they didn't appreciate me or work with me for success.
But No Never Mind, I'm where I should have gone in the first place and THEY are WONDERFUL!

I had my consultation this morning and per my insurance, I need to do a 4 month diet along with the psych evaluation and lab work for approval. The surgeon recommended me for the RNY which wasn't my first choice but I guess it makes sense considering the amount of weight I need to lose and my lifestyle. Overall, I'm excited for the process, even with my birthday being in the middle of the 4 months.

Congrats on getting your date! I don't have a date quite yet but fingers crossed I get one. Just think, you'll be giving yourself a wonderful birthday present: the start of a new chapter.

I know! Hope you get your date soon too! They were going to schedule me for 9/14 but that was1 day after the season opener for the Bengals (we have season tickets) and there was no way I was going to be on Clear Liquids during that game! Lol! 😂 The rest of the season....sure! But give me one last game. Priorities you know ...😝
