Just Starting All This

[Ready4success 380]

Hello everybody,

I just wanted to introduce myself and let everyone know that you are doing an amazing job on this forum. Everyone is so positive, which is so refreshing. With that said, I'm just beginning the process of meeting the requirements for insurance, so I'll be here reading and enjoying this forum for many months before I get close to a surgery date. Just wanted to say thanks for all the info!

I'm just getting started, too! I can think of nothing but this surgery...24/7. I think I'd go plum crazy if I didn't have this website.

And my husband would go crazy hearing me talk about it ALL the time! LOL

I think I'm going to lose my mind before I can even officially start this process!!

I'm constantly preoccupied with thoughts about this surgery...from fears of not being approved to the giddiness of being able to buy cute clothes again. My emotions are all over the place, but mostly I just feel frustrated with having to wait and wait and wait...
