Finally Got Approval

Well, something like 8 months from the start of this journey I finally finished all my insurance pre-reqs and received approval for my surgery. I haven't posted in months, as I had convinced myself I would be denied lol! My surgical appointment is 12/18 and my surgery is 1/2. Any diet or exercise suggestions for pre-op? I would like to lose a few more pounds before surgery. Thanks so much, and also thanks for being here for us newbs and each other

Congradulations ....:cool: Its been a long journey for you.....I know how exciting it is to finally get approved and the date set. :-) Nancy

Congratulations Michele. I don't have any recommendations, but wanted you to know how happy I am for you. Best wishes, Linda

I'm having RNY. And I will start working on protein intake, thanks! I'm sure I will drive you guys nuts over the next 6 weeks or so lol... thanks again! M.

That is great new that you are approved. I found out in Nov I was approved and my suregery date is for Dec 13th. I am not worried about still trying to lose. I am just trying not to gain. I know I am still telling my self that I should do this ( example go out to dinner and stuff) because after words I wont be able too. I want to wish you congradulations and just to sweat it on trying to loose a whole lot before surgery. kat
