FINALLY! I received the call today! I am approved and surgery set for November 30th!!! I couldn't be more excited!!!!!

Found out today that the insurance coordinator never sent my info in last week like she said she would... And she's been on vacation this week. SERIOUSLY!?! I'm trying so ard to stay patient!

I originally found it online but I checked the health market section of our local Hy-Vee and they actually had it cheaper (I'm in Iowa)

4oz milk (I use soy) 4oz cold Water 1 scoop chocolate Protein powder 1 Tablespoon PB2 1 Tablespoon Torani SF Chocolate Syrup Handful of Ice Mix up in blender and enjoy! Its AMAZING!!!

PB2 is powdered peanut butter that is pretty versital and tastes amazing!

We really are in the same boat! Its a game of hurry up then wait... then repeat!

Two steps forward... Two steps back... On Monday I confirmed that all of my information had been received and would be sent in ASAP for my insurance approval. Yesterday I called in and the insurance coordinator was out of the office for the day but the receptionist thought it had been sent in and promised to have the coordinatior confirm with me today... So today I received the call and apparently my surgeons office missed the fax from my psych evaluation and knew that the Dr. I went to for that was on vacation until the 19th so they assumed his office wouldn't send it until after that point and that meant they wouldn't submit until after that point... SOOOO... I went ahead and called his office. Apparently it had been sent over earlier this week and his receptionist assured me she would resend it if they needed... SOOOO.... I then called my insurance coordinator again to let her know it was at her office. UGH!!! I understand that I am not their only patient but come on!!! Hopefully she will get it together and get it sent in today... Fingers crossed

Thank you!!!

I actually made this last week... I'm still waiting on my date, but my husband mentioned he was a little worried about what dinners would look like after my surgery since I love to cook. Anyway, on the list of my current goals is to start introducing him to some of the new foods we will be having without him knowing so it won't be added stress on him (and since he's a little over 6' and weighs 190 soaking wet... he can also drop 10 lbs by thinking he'd like to drop 10 lbs anyway, I'm not so lucky!) He loved it!!! It is pretty tasty and I added some extra veggies we needed to use up and it couldn't have been easier!
