Okay! This is my 2nd post. I posted last month so I could vent a little about the wait. I am posting again to vent about having to wait. Here it is May 15th and I am still waiting. I talked with the nurse at my Dr's office 3 weeks ago and at that time she hadn't completed my letter to the insurance company. I did some research as far as looking into if my insurance would give approval and according to what I have read in our policy, they will pay for it. I am now waiting for the letter to be sent in to the insurance company from Fuzz's office. I hope it will be sent in soon! I am still taking all these blood pressure medicines apparently for no reason because they are not helping. I have lost 3lbs in 3 months so I guess that is pretty good. At least the scale went down and not up. I did make the big mistake of telling my companion's mother about my plans for wls. It wasn't a pleasant conversation. She is in her 70's but is still with it. She is the most opinionated person that I have ever met other than myself. She asked me what was I thinking and why didn't I just join a gym. Then she told me that I shouldn't have let myself get in this position to begin with. She informed me that she weighs less now than she ever has because if she gains 1 pound then she doesn't eat the next day. HELLO! She is losing weight because she is getting older and that is what usually happens when you get to be her age. She finally was acccepting of the wls concept after about a hour of debating. Then she tells me that I will need to get a boob job to lift them up so they will not hang like a potato plow. She Wants her son to have someone perfect! I really wanted to look at her and tell her that her son already thinks I am perfect because I am not a nag like she is. You have to understand that he is 40 and still lives at hime with his parents and he has never been married and has no kids of his own. I am the first person that he has considered marrying because of my outgoing personality and because I am not after him because of his bank accounts. He is very financially set for life. He has 2 businesses that has been established for almost 20 years and are very successful. I have a great job that I have been at for 3 years and I love it even though it is hectic. I have been married before and it wasn't a fairytale marriage so I am comfortable with my relationship that I have with my companion. I like having my own house and responsibilties and the satisfaction of knowing that I can do this without a husband. He is very supportive of the wls. He told me to do what I wanted to do as long as it didn't change me on the inside. He really is a great person. I guess I will just sit and wait for the letter from Dr Fuzz's office. Maybe it will be soon. I am also using the wls to get a little vacation from work. Thanks to everyone for giving me the opportunity to vent!
