I received a call on Tuesday from Christy saying that my surgery has been approved! YEAH!!! I am excited and more then a little nervous. At first I was just excited and then I started to get nervous about having it done. I'm sure that this is normal. My first appointment with Dr. Kligman is on August 27th. I don't know if they schedule the surgery date that day or not. My insurance was GREAT!! I had to have a few blood test done and do a psyc. evaluation, but that was it. The doctors office sent in the results and within 24 hours they received a reply from the insurance company. It was actually a lot less hassle than I thought. I am thankful, because I know that for most people it is not as easy. Good luck to everyone out their still waiting for approval. Don't give up! It took me over a year to get to this point.

That is great news. Now is the time to get going on stuff that will help. Order some samples of protein. Start drinking the water. Start walking. All of these will help with healing. You are on your way to the Lighter Side

Melinda congrats on getting your approval!!! Get ready for you live to change! My suggestion is to take tons of pictures during your weight loss journey, and to take your measurements every month. You will be shocked at how quickly your body will change. Good luck!!!!
