Congratulations!!!!!! I was reading your other posts. I too switched my insurance not because my previous insurance co. wouldn't approve me but I didn't want to pay for 20% of the surgery. New insurance covers everything . I think we all want to be thinner not so much to look good but to feel good and to participate in activities with our friends and families. I wish you luck.

Yeah!!! I am so happy for you Jeanine.  Now I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the insurance company approval.  Let us know as soon as you have a date.  I'm warming your spot up on the Loser's Bench.

Thank you all!! I know that I am getting my Cpap Tuesday and I have to be on that for a month. So my surgery will probably be around Mid-March or April. I am totally guessing on that though. I actually told my husband that we are starting with all my "before" pictures. I am keeping a photographic journal of my progress and making a little scrap book for my Journey!
