Got my letter!!!
Hey guys! I got my approval letter from the insurance company yesterday! Even thought I knew last week that I was approved... it's like an all new excitement again. I just can't believe this is finally happening. I let my boss know about it today. So that she knows in advance that I will be out at the end of March.
I also got a brand new Magic Bullet Blender off of eBay a couple days ago for a REALLY good price. Now I just need to get some protein and recipes to use with it. Any one have some good ones especially for my pre-op diet let me know. Because I will be starting it in a few weeks. I want to make sure I am prepared.
Another good note: My boyfriend of 9 months is moving in with me this weekend. I'm so excited. He is supporting me all the way with this surgery. And promises to do anything I need when going through this.

Congrats, Laura! I know you're thrilled! And it sounds like you've got a great March heading your way with lots of new and exciting changes.
You should check out Scott O.'S blog--he and his wife Beth have a ton of recipes on it, protein stuff included. The World According to Eggface is another one. She makes all kinds of stuff like protein ice cream and pretty much anything you can think of. Most of it with a huge protein kick to it.
Scott and Beth are at http://rjsdadrecipes.blogspot.com/ and they also have a jillion links to other blogs that have recipes.

I need to start trying the protein shake samples I got and see which (if any) that I like. I'm glad that they're only needed for a short while or as an occasional supplement. I suspect I might have a challenge finding something that doesn't have a texture that'll make me wanna barf!
Happy Approval Letter!!!!

Don't you just want to frame that letter?!
I remember being so excited I stuck mine on the refrigerator just like I used to display my kids art and schoolwork.
Congratulations!!
