HOLY CRAP!

I'm approved!

Surgeon's office submitted to UHC last week, they received it 2/28, and it was approved today, just a few minutes ago! 

I don't have a surgery date yet because my surgeon's office hasn't been notified, but I should get a call tomorrow. The scheduler there said that if everything went according to plan, I would be having surgery April 11 or 18!

I'm doing a little dance at my desk right now, I am so excited. Hooray!

Interesting, that will be almost a year to the day since you joined OH. 

Want a list of things you might want to get for yourself?  See this link:

Here are some ideas for protein in the beginning.  YOu might want to find a bunch of samples for any pre-op liquid phases and post-op.  I got mine at www.vitalady.com.
