  1. I'm glad your surgery went so well and that you are really feeling nothing other than tired! I bet you are so excited to be on your way!

    I am excited FOR you!

     

    I checked with my insurance company in more detail today. They will cover the surgery (at least my policy does) . They listed the requirements and it doesn't look like they require a preop diet, specific testing, etc., other than a psych eval (maybe the dr will require more?) Anyway, the seminar I was planning to attend next week the doctor is covered, but not the hospital where they operate... so now I'm going to a different seminar probably early next month for a dr/hospital that are both covered by my insurance. According to my policy you have to have no sustained weight loss in the last 2 years. I have lost 40 pounds, but gained about 15 back and I worry that they consider this a sustained loss -yet I hate to intentionally gain it back! AHHHHH such mind games!

     

    Please keep me posted on how you are doing... again... I'm so excited for you!!
