January 4th!
January 4th looks like a great day for the new me as well! We should all give ourselves a pat on the back for taking this big step. I know for me it's been huge, as my insurnce won't cover the procedure despite doing all the pre-op stuff and saying I was a great candidate and that "they" the insurance provider actually felt badly for me becuase my husband's employer actually elected to stop paying for the procedure for everyone, under any cir****tance in 2006! (I started the process in late 2007.)
What a long road this has been. My MD recomended RNY to me almost 11 years ago and I was insistent that I could do it without surgery. So here I am after WW, Nutri-system, WW, medi-fast, opti-fast, WW, exersicing like a crazy person, oh and did I mention WW again... only to finally realize my body is different and this is not a reflection of how hard I work to stay health and eat right, it a reflection of genetics and I can do something about it!
Congrats again to us all - and can't wait to see how we all show the world what we are made of!
