Miss Michi 33 Posted October 25, 2012 I'm so excited I just came home from my last visit with the nut & have passed the psyche with flying colors so now I'm just waiting for the authorization to be submitted and auth'd hopefully with in a week or so I'll be able to get scheduled.....I have a million feeling going through my head right now, the main one being happiness. I can't wait for the weight loss to begin, there are so many things I want to do but right now I just need to start with some kind of physical activity tomorow after work I'm going the the local gym and will renew my membership I also will start walking our new puppy more often & make him my #1 guy since the others are not really helping )) so for the first time in a long time I'm gonna make it all about me!!!! Sorry if I'm all over the place like I said before so many thoughts & feelings right now 1 SuiteV reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gail_juarez 32 Posted October 25, 2012 That sounds wonderful you have everything in place. I just got back from my doctors appt and have a psyche appt on 11/15 and an appt with the surgeon on 11/16. Already approved for surgery just waiting for a date. I feel you on being all over the place emotion wise, I've waited my entire life to do this, I'm 58 years old and its never to late to get healthy! Good Luck!

Jenny LaJoye 11 Posted October 26, 2012 I just recieved the email from "ready 4achange" requesting me to fill out a health form. What is the process after that and approximatly how long does everything take? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miss Michi 33 Posted October 26, 2012 I just recieved the email from "ready 4achange" requesting me to fill out a health form. What is the process after that and approximatly how long does everything take? It all depends on your insurance company, usually a series of visits with the nutritionist, a psych eval sometimes a cardiology clearance and an EGD depending if you have other co-morbidities and age.... But time flys I feel like just yesterday I was at my PCP's office asking for a referral and now I'm so close )) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
