bratvp63 118 Posted January 13, 2012 I am now super stoked...the office had told me last week that I was approved but yesterday in the mail I got my approval letter from the insurance company and the big info packet from the surgeon's office. I can finally relax and know that I am set to go and Feb 13 is going to really happen! I can't thank you guys on here for all the support and advice, it's been amazing and am so glad I found this place. 2 PEvette and koriswlj reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

andersonlj 32 Posted January 13, 2012 Congratulations on your insurance approval. You must have some great insurance as mine denied me immediately.....thus the trip to Mexico. I think that you will never regret your decision and the new life that awaits. I know that my confidence and self esteem have increased in just the month since I had surgery and lost 30 pounds. I know how high you feel right now but this will be nothing compared to how you feel a few months after your surgery. Again congratulations and keep us posted.

LGoz 4 Posted January 14, 2012 Congrats!! My insurance came back in just 10 days! I was shocked also.. Get your mind set different now because the ball game changes alot after surgery for the positive. You go from the the pressure of "wanting" it so bad to the "reality" of making your life the best it can be... I'm 4 weeks out and down 25 pounds!! I'm on cloud nine and can not wait for the rest of the journey.. My BMI of 35 was right at the cut off for my insurance so I was really worried.. Take care and good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
