I am becoming obsessive about getting this surgery. I feel like I have spent enough of my time being overweight and I am ready to not be obese anymore. I know I shouldn't rush it. But I can't help it.

So far:

I picked a doctor, then unpicked him after hearing how terrible he is in surgery (having to convert several laps into opens due to his errors).

my husband's insurance does not cover any wls

found a great job w/benefits didn't get it

NOW i have an interview for another job, which has great benefits. However, in 2008 they will no longer be paying for wls.

So now i am wondering what my chances are on buying some insurance that might cover it.

B/c if i get the job i interview for, they will reimburse me for my tuition, and save me some money instead of paying for my husband to carry me on his insurance, and they actually pay halfway decent. So I am thinking I can take the money we don't spend on his insurance and buy a policy that might cover me.

ugh, i just wish I would get some awesome news, like my husband's employer deciding not to exclude wls, or the new job to not exclude it. JUST SOMETHING GOOD! I am determined to have this surgery by next summer.
