Just wanted to say thank you to everyone here and on the main board for all the help with my research!  I am going to Dr. Tvetenstrand's office tomorrow to get my binder and have my first official visit!  I am so excited to finally be getting started!

Thanks you guys!  It went really well!  Lin is an absolute sweetheart!

I was so nervous I got there an hour early (if you knew me, you'd KNOW what a big deal that is!  I'm typically at LEAST 15 minutes late everywhere!!)

Anyway, Lin took me in early, and we ended up using that extra time talking!  She is such an inspiration and easy to talk to! 

So I have my binder and am now waiting for the bari-sentials class on the 11th so I can start making my other appointments with nut, psych, and all that!  She said the whole process should take 5-6 months, and with my insurance requiring a supervised diet of 6 months, that should work out perfectly!

I am so excited to be one step closer!
