Psych and Nut visits this week hope to be a tucker soon
This whole process for me start on Feb 15th. That day I had an appointment with my endocrinologist that manages my diabetes and thyroid disease. I asked her if it would be crazy if i was to consider WLS. She said that would be great and directed me to the surgery consultant 2 floors up and I got to walk in and have an appointment that day! After speaking with her made the appointment with the surgeon and got a book and dvd to watch. Went home and did lots of praying. My BMI is 35. I need loose about 50-60lbs. Found out my insurance doesn't require any type of 6 month supervised plan and all I had to do is visit with psych and nutrionist. I have those appointments this week and then it will be submitted to insurance. Since I am having hysterectomy this will be much more affordable for me since I will have out of pocket max met. Target date for surgery is June 25. Hysto is May 16th. I have been reading, researching, and following the happenings on this forum. I am amazed at some of the before and after pics. I want to buy a pretty belt and a hot pair of jean and TUCK in my shirt. I have never been able to be a tucker because of this tire i carry around my middle. Good luck to all you! I am a bit addicted to reading this forum several times a day. You keep me modtivated and encouraged.
