Anxiously awaiting Mid May Date -Need to Vent!

Sorry, I just need to vent/cry...I need support....I started my journey in October 2009.  i am anxiously awaiting a mid May surgery date mainly due to insurance requirements.  Hopefully there will be no question for approval.   The 7 month diet evaluation is killing me!!  I've been counseled on my weight for the last 32 years!!!  I've been satified all other testing requirements so I sit here and wait.  The nurse at the docs office keeps trying to encourage me that it is right around the corner, but i'm still freaking out.  I also have an issue where I cannot lose any weight or I will fall below the requirement.  I can't believe I have that problem, but a recent broken engagement 2 months ago is to blame for the weight loss.  I am still no where near the weight I should be....This is a very tough time for me.  i never thought that I would have to maintain this weight, but if I don't, all of this time spent will be lost......then i will have a a broken engagement, and denied WLS.  I am tired of hearing "such a pretty face"...  I have my last weigh in on April 28 then they can submitt the paperwork to the Insurance and at that point schedule me a date...hopefully May 11 or 12.  ASAP!!!   I am just trying to get through the days/weeks but I'm having a rough time...all around.:(

Thanks,

Toni 

Isn't it crazy the one thing that can make the weight fall off is the one thing that hurts the most!
I will be pulling for you getting a May date! I have only been on my quest since Dec 3,08 and have completed all the steps, now it is wait till May 4th...
Keep you chin up! you will make it!

Thanks for your support!  It is greatly appreciated.  Yes, it is crazy what makes the weight fall off..and yes, it does hurt!!!  I keep trying not to wish the time away, but I'll feel much much better once I have my date.....That will be a new begining for me all the way around......I go for my march weigh in on Tuesday, then I'll only have 1 more!! which will be April 28..then schedule!!!  I'm trying to keep focused on the prize...

my last weigh in is also on april 28th! i pray you get your date asap!

yes i feel ur pain i have been scheduled for surgery 3x's so far and they keep post poning it 1st because i needed a sonogram of my heart then because i needed a stress test and then because i needed to see a pulmonary dr and now because i have to have a cardiac cath test its frustraiting and i am tired of waiting and i am depressed i just want to do it and get on w/my life so i understand but they say it will happen soon and if i can wait all the time i have waited prior to now then certainly i can wait a little longer to ensure my safety and that everything is done correctly hang in there i will keep u in my thoughts!
