Last legs before submitting to insurance

Nov 01, 2010

Wow, I am SO excited, but it's still hard to believe.  I saw my surgeon on Thursday, and he told me "Next time I see you, it will be for pre-op!".

I see my PCP the week of Thanksgiving and then my surgeon will submit all documents for my insurance approval.  Reality that insurance should approve this and I could be sleeved THIS YEAR is just amazing to me.  I am so looking forward to life after surgery.  I told my surgeon if I was approved on a Monday, I'd be ready to hop on the table Tuesday. lol. 

My mom and I were window shopping yesterday and I started talking about the clothes I think I'll like after surgery.  It's definitely a mind shift when I think that I won't be restricted to the styles for plus size.  I have to admit Lane Bryant, CJ Banks and Torrid have made some strides in fashion for us plus sizers, but the choices seem SO limitless once I am in "normal" size clothes.  Right now I hide my stomach as much as possible, but once there's less to hide, who knows?

If I can just keep my focus this last month and not gain any weight before submitting to insurance, we'll be doing great.  *sigh* I think I can, I think I can, I think I can. :)
