I'm doing the Pipi Dance and I don't even have to go!

Sep 01, 2010

As the title implies, I am sooooo excited that I'm literally shaking my legs, smiling from ear to ear and just cannot contain myself!  Beyond ecstatic!  Reason? Well,  I HAVE FINALLY BEEN APPROVED BY MY INSURANCE to proceed w/ surgery. 
Yesterday was an all day event....met with my Psych in the AM...surprisingly passed which means I'm not crazy (although some friends and family want a second opinion, lol)....met my surgeon and internist and both agreed I was ready and a great candidate for surgery.  I was approved for the surgery I wanted....VSG (the "sleeve")  So in a few I will be saying goodbye permanently to a major portion of my huge stretched out stomach! 
So, now I'm just waiting for a date!  Surgeon says it takes about 21 days to process, and was given strict orders NOT TO CALL AND BUG EM!  So I set my computer and phone alarms to the 22nd day....lol...so I can call and bug em.then!!!!  Dr. Taller (my surgeon from PBSMG, San Diego) said to expect surgery within first 2 weeks of October...That's only about a month and a few weeks away!  Skinny, healthier me - here I come!
