Topic: Noblesville, IN Support Group
Hi all-

I'm in the process of starting a local support group in Noblesville, IN. 
I wanted to get feedback on who would be interested in attending and which day of the week and time would be good.  We would start with meeting once a month and there will also be an on line support group that ties into this group as an additional support system.

Here are some options for days and times:

Mondays 6-7 or 7-8
Wednesdays 6-7 or 7-8

If these days and times do not work out once I receive feedback I will send out alternate days and times.

Depending on the day and number of attendees support group may be held at the Noblesville Library (Hamilton East Public Library) off of Cumberland Road and State Road 32.

Please respond to this post or send me an email at 
[email protected]

I'm very excited to get this group going and would love to hear from those interested!

Have a great day!

Topic: Got approval #1, waiting for 2nd!!
Hi everyone!  My Aetna insurance approved the surgeon's fees, and I'm just waiting now to hear if my BCBS of IL approves the hospital fees.  Is there a site or can any of you recommend what I buy and what I have prepared for when I get home from the hospital?  Should I have some pureed foods frozen in 1 oz containers?  What vitamins should I be buying in preparation?  Any help at this point is greatly appreciated. I haven't had my all day dietician class yet so I'm sure that will tell me everything I need to do and know. Hopefully, anyway!  Thank you so much!!  Sincerely, Laura

Topic: RE: Healthy Indiana Plan
Wow, thanks everyone for the replies. I wonder if the difference between some of the cases is wether some of us had Anthem and some of us had MDWise.

I have Anthem and the Insurance Specialist at the Bariatric Center said I wont have to have the 6 month weight loss documentation. I had my psych eval on Tuesday and it went great. Ive got my fingers crossed that things keep going as smoothly as they have been. I just started this process at the beginning of the month. It's been amazing so far.

Again, thanks and congratulations to all of you for doing this for yourselves!!
