3rd weekers

Hello 3rd weekers... I wanted to see how many of you are actually involved in the message board. Surgery is coming up fast and I just wanted to make sure that all the 3rd weekers are getting ready and are in a good state of mind.

Oh Beth: I am on here constantly. Sneaking peaks even at work. What else am I supposed to do. mmmmmm Train my new supervisor to do my job while I am gone. Data map my department. OH well...they had plenty of notice. I cannot help it if they all of a sudden have been running scared. Think I will get a raise for my vast knowledge when I get back?

I think involving myself in the board has eased my anxiety some. Most days I am excited, but every once in a while I get a bit panicky.

Hi, Im a 3rd.weeker. In the back of my mind Im thinking maybe my heart test was not ok, or something else, & If I share about it, It will come true!Today I got a letter from my primary Dr. It was sent to her from BC/BS & said they didnt cover any weight loss-anything! Well I called BC/BS & they said it was wrong- In 95 they werent covering it! While on the phone I asked for the authorization no, etc. complete co-payment-$250.Anyone watch the Al Roker story tonite?Best to all, LInda N.

I am a 3rd weeker, and having one pre-op appointment with my PCP this Friday and my last meeting with the surgeon's office for diet instructions and post care instructions next Wednesday. Not having any problems so far, pretty relaxed...I have been taking their vitamins and protein drink once a day for over a month and off of caffeine over a month...I think I am ready.

i am a third weeker--the board is very helpful--it makes me feel like i am not alone--i am here everyday--best wishes everyone!
