Well talk about surprizes......

Guess what? I just got back from a 2 week trip and I had a call from my doctor's office today. They said they had submitted my paper work and the insurance has approved me?????? So what was all the BS about a 3 month MD supervised diet? I did start it in Dec.... but it ain't hardly March yet. Oh well I'm not going to complain! They have me on the surgical schedule for Feb 27. Just have a few more doctors to see to get clearance then it onward and upward! My head is still spinning! Derrick

I am so happy for you

Thanks, you folks are the greatest! Thank you one and all! Derrick

GO DERRICK, GO DERRICK, GO DERRICK! Congratulations on your approval and surgery date. It's all up hill from here on out. Enjoy the ride! Rosa

Now that's a great surprise! But you should be thinking onward and DOWNward...because pretty soon you're going to be a big LOSER! Congrats! Jen

Derrick, Congratulations that is awesome! Welcome back how was your trip? Chip

It was really great Chip, a real "once in a lifetime" type trip. Stayed with a friend in Jordan for 2 weeks and got to see a lot of the country side and meet the people. Petra and Aqaba were really something. We have to do coffee sometime again. Really appriciated all insight you shared on the WLS. Huggers, Derrick

I am so happy for you, congratualtions. Erin

Thanks Erin how are you doing these days? Derrick

I am doing ok, I finally think my mouth virus is gone and I have been able to drink better and eat some. I think a few more days and I will be ready to be back to normal and can work on my exercise and getting my stamina built back up. Not to mention I can get working on my school work. I took 4 classes online this semester. Hope you are doing well Take care Erin
