Well its two days away. I can't believe after two years it's really here.

I am excited and scared....it goes kinda like this

I think OMG next summer when we go on vacation I will be able to walk with out getting winded

then I think I hope I don't have some weird reaction to the anthesia and not wake up

I think...I could lose 30 lbs by the end of the year

then I think....I hope I am not in an incredible amount of pain

.....my sister says my glass is half empty.

I can do this...and I prayed that if this was God's will that it would happen....and here it is....so I know he is with me.

and how does it go? If he is with me....who could be against me?

Pray that this goes well for me....and that God will fill me with confidence :)

It has taken two years......but I have been approved for surgery!!

My surgery date is 9/26/12.

So excited!!! and so nervous!!!

Praying that everything goes smoothly.

my request was submitted to insurance on 8/11.....they contacted me today nad said they need more:

-Another Psych test
-weight or pic from 2005 (even though I provided them a letter with my weight from 2006-2010)
-clear indication of height (letter from doctor and wls dr are different)
-and I have to lose 30 lbs (10% of body weight)

Just seems like I will never get to the end of this....my wls doctors office apologized because they told me I did not have to lose the 30 lbs. Now I do.

so more stuff....this has been going on for 7 months now....blah!

My stress test came back as "abnormal" I have since had to have a heart cath done. The cath was 7/30.....I was a nrevousw wreck.

Thank God.....the cardiologist said all things where normal. I am now waiting for my recommendation letter from my regular docor and I can submit for approval.

Had my chmical stress test this morning. I was a nervous wreck.....thought I was gonna cry! The chemical made my heart race....and I was out of breathe but after that.....I was fine. I am at home now.....still feel a little weird....but I think its because I was so anxious. I have to go back tomorrow for a short one hour visit.....for more pictures of my heart....then I am done with tests.....yeah!

I had my 5th of 6 doctor visits yesterday! That means one more to go. July will be a busy month, I have my last dietician appoitnment 7/8, my chemical stress test on 7/6, and my final doctors appoitnment on 7/28. Then the paper work will be submitted! I hope I get approved and I can get a quick surgery date!!! Oh and I am going on vacation to Mexico 7/19!

I have only lost 8lbs on my 6 month supervised diet....I am hoping I can lose a little more. I can't wait to get this surgery. I really feel like all this weight is starting to affect my health. I am only 36 and I am always tired....I am ready to start new and be healthy!

Wel I  had my upper GI today.....Its wasn't to bad. I am praying that it comes back clear. After this I have one more pre op test (7/6/10 Cemical Stress Test) that one sounds scarey!

I have two classes to take with my dietician (6/22/10, 7/8/10) and two more visits with my doctor (6/28/10, 7/28/10) . So hopefully at the end of July I will be able to send off for approval. I am getting excited. Just praying all my tests come back good!
