My surgery date has been set for 2/28 - Nervous!!

 

I started this Journey back in Oct..and I was suppose to go monthly to my regular doctor to make sure I was following the guidelines for my insurance to approve the surgery. I missing appointments due to my busy scheudle and then I just gave up on the whole idea. Last week I got a call from clinic I was going to for my surgery and they said my insurance had changed the rules as of 2/1/12 and said the 6th month diet was no longer needed and I was 100% approved if i still wanted to proceed. I talked to my mom and some family...Called them back..and wow was that surgery date set up fast.

 

I am 24 (about to be 25 in a month) and have a starting weight of 345LBS. I have always been overweight..and as everyone else, I've tired everything to lose it. I am exciting for my surgery..but also scared that I will be person who doesn't show any progess. Guess we will see how this goes..

 

Would love to meet some people who are going though this..or have been though it. I think i am really going to need the support.
