Congratulations! 

I have surgery scheduled for the 28th and I feel nervous as well, but I've been reading as much as possible (online forums, books) and attending support groups to learn as much as I can since January. If we can prepare ourselves (or try to) beforehand we might have a better idea of the process and what to expect. I wish you the best of luck as you begin your weight loss journey!

Congratulations!!!  Very happy for you!  I just got approved last week and now my emotions are all over the place.  On another thread I was told this is normal - so I guess butterflies in the stomach are okay, too!  I'm in July sometime.  Hugs from afar!

Got my fingers crossed for you!! I had a strange feeling Tuesday that I could not shake, so I thought win lose or draw I am calling the insurance company. The docs office probably hate me, but I emailed, called, left messages, spoke to people, all in hopes of staying informed of what was going on. It is not their surgery but mine. Emotions are a little out there, my big thing is wanting a date. My family has so many things they want to do this summer and everything is hinged on my date. We can not buy tickets or plan out of town stays, frustrating! We have a trip to the Dominican Republic in the beginning of September, but nothing else can be planned. The trip was made months ago, when the docs office thought surgery would be the end of April or very beginning of May. Please keep me posted! Would be awesome to have a couple people with similar dates!!
