Yes I feel the same way! I am doing the 6 month diet required by insurance. I am watching what I eat, trying to maybe get a head start, but on the other hand I do sometimes thing " I should eat this now, while I can!" I get that. I can't get a date until insurance approves, and I have heard that the surgeon's office is far behind for getting them scheduled. I have a high deductible plan which I have met this year and really need to have it this year. I really hope all the timing works out.
