hey everyone. sorry haven't been on. i'm doing great. it's been 6 months of adjustments. i'm down 120 pounds already.. had no clue it would fall off this fast. loving all the energy i have now. i do so much more than i ever did before. love that i had this surgery and as soon as i can i'll post new pics.

I have thought about wls for many years and I finally had the nerve to ask my family dr. about it. He was very helpful and agreed right away that I am a perfect canidate for the surgery. He gave me a referral to Ocala bariatrics within 2 days. I was very surprised I never expected it to happen so fast. They gave me an appointment for 9/23/09. I was so excited. They told my I was a go as long as I get everything in they required. Well I did all my blood work, my psych exam and I had my nutritional evaluation. So now I'm waiting on approval from my insurance company. Dr. Jawad's office submitted it last wednesday. They said they usually hear something within 72 hours which was yesterday. Hopefully they say yes soon I'm very excited. I'll keep you posted. Wish me luck!
   Talked to my dr. today insurance company says they never recieved my paperwork. So my dr.'s office had to re-fax everything. So now the wait starts over. ugh! I will be calling monday morning to make sure it was recieved this time. No more waiting patiently for me, this to important to me.
