Oh my gosh! I am so excited because everything fell into place and I'm so used to having the problems instead of everything working perfectly.

I am so happy!!!!!! I thought it would take many months and expected denial first, but BCBS Empire was great!!! Less than 24 hours after submittal they called to tell me I was approved!!! Now I am in fast forward and need to get vitamins and shakes ready for Monday. I also need to take before pictures (before shakes, surgery, etc...) to post here. So much to do to keep me busy until my re-birthday!

Wondering if my insurnace company was going to approve me was the worst. I was approved in less then a week but the stress of it even before I got as far as the paperwork being submitted for the approval was awful. I know you must be overjoyed. I need to buy my shakes tomorrow because I start my 2 week pre shake diet on Saturday. I wish you a lot of luck.... Shannon

I am so excited! I kept hearing how hard it is to get approval sometimes and was prepared for the worst. I am going shopping for my shakes on Saturday to start on Monday. I'm wanting to make sure I get a good head start since I would like to lose between 180 and 200 lbs overall. I can't believe how much I have to lose now, but at least I know I will FINALLY! Good luck to you too!
