Well, congrats and good luck. It really is much easier than regular surgery.

I didn't have a war with BCBS, my company just doesn't cover it, end of story. It seems to cover everything else though.

Congrats to you!!!!!! I'm sorry you had to go to war just to get this done. I'm where you probably were, I am have the time of my life with BCBS.

Congrats to you!!!!!! Sorry you had to war with BCBS, but you got through it. I'm probably where you were months ago, I'm having the time of my life with BCBS. How did you ever do it?

Good luck. Remember to diary all your food from here on out -- you'll need to make a study of how you react to certain foods, when you eat them, how you eat them, etc. Like whether you can have solids in the morning, or have to stick to yogurt.

I recommend investing in a nice belt (eg, elastic weave) with plenty of room to adjust it, and maybe count on buying new pants in a month or two. You'll be down 3-6 inches before you realize it, I figure. :ohmy:
