Life is good
Feb 18, 2008
Life is good........I am REALLY starting to get excited about my new life. I am actually excited about going on the liquid diet, anxious to see how much I can loose preop.
I have been planning and preparing for surgery, making purchases and lists, making plans for my daughter while I am in the hospital, etc, etc.
I find that the emotional preparation has been as important or more important than the physical preparation.
My husband is well on his way to a sugery date aswell. Should be April or May. For those of you who do not know me well enough to know my husband and my relationship with him, let me say that the last couple of days have been awesome. We have overcome many things in the last handfull of years, things that you only hear about on Jerry Springer and the sorts...lol But we have managed and have a new found commitment to each other.
He is a plant worker and works many, many too many hours, he works days I work nights and we have a daughter who is in every activity known to man. When we have time together as we have the last couple of days it is sooo refreshing, making me remember why I keep him around. He is an awesome dad, provider and soulmate. Why he keeps me around remains one of earths greatest mysteries.

Guys I am reading a book, Oprah's book of the month.....I totally recommend it. A New Earth
Wow the things I have learned.
So many of life's mysteries are now clearer to me than ever before. Why we do the things we do, why others do the things they do and how our religious beliefs are what they are.
The count down is on, I have bought my PJ and some of the groceries I need.

Since I was told that I had an approval I have had alot of em0tions, all except the emotions I had expected.......excitement. I have even considered not having the surgery at all. Where did this come from? I have fiqured it out......
I recently realized that I want the approval of the person that I call and will always call my best friend regardless of the circumstances. Not sure I will ever get it for many reasons, some of my own making.
The deep threaded emotions of obesity and the life circumstaces that causes it to begin with will never stop amazing me. Few people realize it better than I do.

And the wait begins again

So.....I received a call from my surgeons office. She stated the the surgeon competed my H&P and she was sending at that second to the insurance. Give it 1 week for a answer. W*A*I*T*.
The problem is that she does not seem to be hopeful in the least, reminding me that if I am denied I will have to appeal on my own (because I have no weight for 2003, she has a weight for 2002 and in 2005 I weighed 237....3 lbs below a BMI of 35. Which I personally think is BS, because the insurance also requires a deit history....how can you show a diet history with no weight loss?) She is sooo negative.
I on the other hand am trying to remain positive.
So that said......today I am thankful for being able to see my own faults in others. Insight

Surgeons office called today to tell me that my info is on Dr. Garth's desk for H&P, when he is finished it will go for typing and THEN go to insurance for an approval. At that point they say they will call me back to let me know that I am pending insurance approval. HURRY UP AND WAIT.
I hope this happens soon. My momentum is waining...bad.
Today I am Thankful for people who call to keep you posted. I have not had the opportunity to meet Michelle at my surgeons office........but she seems to be God sent.
