THAT IS SO AWESOME!!!!! I'm so happy for you right now!!!!

As for approval, they say it can take up to 30 business days. I have Aetna PPO and it took about 15 business days to come back with an approval.

oh I hear you on that one! I almost had it done in 2001 until my insurance renewed and was switched! I was so devastated and I gave up until last year. It took me from January of 2007 until May of 2008 to get mine done. All I can say hon is to hang in there and the rewards will be AWESOME!

Best wishes on your journey!

Comparison is the thief of joy!

If we spend our time comparing our life/weight loss/body to others, we totally miss what WE have accomplished.   Keep in mind how far you have come and what you can do now that you couldn't do weeks/months/years ago.   I hate the expression " It's all good", but in this case it fits!   Wherever you are in your journey  ... It's ALL good!!!

Thank goodness! I am so happy for you!
Wishing you all the best in your journey.

After my approval I had gotten a date for exactly 1 month later to have surgery.

Keep us posted.

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.
