Well, me and Chris took the day off today and went into Manhattan for my Nutritionist and Nurse appointments at the surgeons office. All went well. I should have absolutely no problem doing this as a vegetarian. She gave me my pre-op and post-op plan which is very doable. And guess what? I have my consult with the surgeon scheduled for next Friday! Can you believe it? I know I have to wait until June, but I'm psyched to get an appointment so quickly. I'm really trying to get everything in place. Both Dr. Fielding and Dr. Ren from that office accept my insurance (I thought it was only Fielding) and since I want the RNY, they told me that Ren is the one to go with. Fine by me. She did the seminar that we went to and she was quite impressive. Anyway, I'm very excited and feel that this is a huge step in my journey. Rachelle

Thanks babe. I love going into Manhattan. I'm hoping we can make a little more of a day of it next Friday. I'm so friggin' excited about getting this much closer, you would think I was all set for surgery or something! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for insurance approval, though I'm really not anticipating a problem. The surgeons office was very happy with my documentation the fact that I have all my ducks in a row at this point. Rachelle
