A Tiny Set Back

The Drs Office called my today & she saids title 19 said I do qualify for the surgery BUT...They want me to see a Dr for supervised for the next 3-4 months & I said that was fine.The Dr im going to see is in Council Bluffs Iowa & He deals with WLS before & after my Dr recommends him after your WLS to be your regular Dr...So I called & set a appointment with him...The nice lady explained to me this will help me out alot before my surgery to,Which I think will be great & he will help me on my eating so it will be easier on me when I have to do my liquid diet...Actually im only alittle upset...I cried for awhile but I know its proble for the best...My family thinks its a signthat I should have it...LMAO its like ok whatever...PS I Hope Everyone have a GREAT Weekend... Laterz Janelle

Hey Janelle, I had to do the 3-4 month supervised diet thingy too. Although I knew about it before I ever had my stuff submitted so I was ahead at that point. Don't sweat it though it really does go fast.. Good Luck Tracie

Tracie,Thank you so much for replying back to me so fast & for the vote of confidence,I really need it...I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart,It means so much to me & helps me out alot when you reply to me Until Next time Janelle

Hey Janelle, You are so welcome.. I understand what it's like to be a 'newbie' and post and not have replies. Maybe it's just because some people don't know what to say or are just to busy. When I have the chance I always like to give words of encouragement even if I don't have any advice. It IS nice to know someone is reading your posts and to know someone at least at the time cares.. Anytime girl! Tracie

Tracie,I thank you once agian for taking the time for me...It makes me feel good... Janelle

Hey that 3-4 months will fly by.....and anything that makes an approval faster is worth it!!! I am not doing much this weekend actually......just gonna chill around the house and do some housework......already got grocery shopping done.....I can't believe how cold it is today....it was so warm and sunny this morning......then BAM the cold came with the clouds!!!!! BBBRRRRR!!!! Good luck....and stay on here and keep in touch!!! jesi P.S. I also chose a PCP afterwards that knows a little bit about my surgery.....boy it sure does help!! He sounds like he will be an excellent choice!!!

Jesi (((HUGZ))) Its been a while...I know it will go by faster then I think...I think it was ment to be for now...I will just keep up & smile lol...I meet with The new PCP Moday so I will let ya know how it goes ok? Laterz Janelle

Janelle, Isn't it the pits to be put off and have to wait. But my philosophy has been similar to yours. I sing a little ditty - In God's time, In _______ time, He makes all thing beautiful. And mine and your times are a coming. When He is ready. After 3 postponements I hope that the 26th of May will finally be my day; however, whatever the case during the delays I have become more prepared for the surgery. Take care.

Hiya Syb, I know it will go by faster then I think...I think it was ment to be for now...I will just keep up & smile lol...I meet with The new PCP Moday so I will let ya know how it goes ok? Also Syb I'm wishing you the very best with your surgery!! You & your family will be in my thoughts & prayers & I also wanted to wish you the best of Luck threw your awesome journey!! (((BIG HUGZ))) to you! Laterz Janelle

Morning Janelle, Time will fly by fast! Title 19 must've changed some rules...gee why does that surprise me?! I had to wait after my heart attack from December to April for my surgery & thought it would go by slow but it did go by faster than imagined. Keep us posted Hugs Carolyn
