I'm approved too!!

I just wanted to say that I am thrilled and nervous and scared out of my mind.  I opened that letter and was fully prepaired to fight a denial...but am sooooooooooooo glad that it was a first time approval.  Of course, my primary wrote an awesome letter.....I told him, "Wow, it sounds bad when you put it like that.".....duh!  So, August 18th.  OMG!

Wow August 18th! Congratulations to you. i am very excited and happy for you. Get ready for the journey of a lifetime. Good luck - please keep us posted.

Congratulations, Michele!  Good for you.  August 18th, eh?  That's just around the corner.  Are you all ready?  Got everything you need?  Treading

It is funny when they called me in June with the August date I was a bit disappointed...now I am so glad for that little bit of extra time to enjoy the summer before getting down to the hard work.  Not that it has been easy thus far!  I have a whole cupboard packed with weightloss stuff....so I think I am ready.  I read here on OH every day to see what tips I can pick up.  I think my favorite tip thus far was the greek yougert.  I can't imagine why my nut didn't have that on her list of things.... Then again, when I am done this process---I am sure I will have a better grip on it than her.  I am sure at my first follow up I will have plenty to share with her.    What about you?  You must be getting excited too!

Congrats!  August will be here in no time!
