Finished all of my required approvals

Aug 18, 2011

I am so excited...i thought i would never get everything done especially this fast....It's only been a month and I have gotten all of the required approvals...I have one appointment left prior to surgery and that's to get the IVF filter for blood clots.  This is totally optional.

But I talked to my surgeons office yesterday and they told me i can change my surgery to August 31 instead of September 7....I got excited and nervous at the same time>.......Now to the liquid diet....HELP!!

So yesterday I went to get my pysc exam.  That was an experience.  It was actually insightful, I think I was stressing for no reason.

Today i receveid a call because my insurance would not approve me for the sleeve because my BMI was only 41...WTF.... It's either Bypass or lapband,

My Journey has officially begun

Aug 01, 2011

On July 19, I had my intitial consultantion with the doctor and the office coordinator.
we talked about my issues, my goals and what I need to do.  I have so far written my letter, seen the cardiologist, gastroentrologist, turned in my doctor'sletter and attended my first nutrionist session.  I have a tentative surgery date of September 7, however I still have a couple of appointments to go to. I missed my psychologist appointment so I am waiting for that to be rescheduled.  All of a sudden I feel things are moving really fast and I am starting to feel a little over whelmed but Im determined to hold on and hang in there.
