Daniel 0 Posted July 4, 2011 Hey everyone, My name is Dan, and I am new to this forum. I am 37 years old and have struggled with my weight for many years like many of you. I have already gone through the 6 mandatory months, of therapy and submitted my request to the insurance company "Auxiant" and was approved immediately to my surprise. I meet with my surgeon on the 11th of July and my surgery date is July 26th 2011. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boots1 0 Posted July 4, 2011 Welcome Dan, so great that you are getting to move along quickly. I guess 6 months of therapy didn' t seem like it was quickly for you. This is a great forum and everyone is friendly and eager to be encouraging. YOur surgery is the day before mine. I will keep tabs on your progress. You will have to check out the forum for July sleevers. Good Luck. Hey everyone, My name is Dan, and I am new to this forum.
