New to the group

Hi All,

I've selected my physician, had my psych eval, completed my 6 month monitored diet required by insurance and am now awaiting UHC decision--->biting nails! If anyone has any experience and/or advice for this stage of the game, plz feel free to msg me and thank you for the warm welcome to the group from Kathy B.

Congrats on the progress you have made thus far in your journey... Did they give you any idea as to how long the approval process may take? I am wishing you a speedy approval and being able to continue forward in this journey to health and wellness.
Welcome to our group. I hope you find yourself very at home here. Hope to see you in our Monday evening chat room gatherings!

You are most welcome for the welcome.  I like to make all newcomers feel like part of the family.  You are now a part of my family, and I love the support that we share back and forth.  I get so much more from this group than I give.

Do something fun for yourself this weekend.  A stroll along a lake, a bit of sunshine.  Take a moment and make an inventory of how far you have come in this process.  Survived the 6 month diet evaluation, mentally prepared yourself for the needed ha*****anges that will be the rest of your life.  Praying that the approval process sails along quickly and that you have a surgery date scheduled. 

Which surgery are you planning?  What is your first name?  I am prepared to walk beside you through this adventure.  Let's share the ride.  Take care, hugs.
