My surgeon's request was received by my insurance on Tuesday.

Because patience is something I have very little of, I called them yesterday to check status. Still in review, they said. I called again today and I've been approved!! Two day turn around time is WAYYY better than I expected to get!

So, I'm scheduled for surgery May 2nd. I'm going to call the surgeon's office tomorrow and see if there's ANY possibility we can go sooner (doubt it, but I'll never know til I ask!).

I started this whole process in July 2012. I'm so thankful that after all the struggles I went through, I'm finally getting the results I want.

I'm just so eager to start this new chapter in my life. I'm so excited, I could cry! :D

Awesome! I just found out I was approved today also but don't have a surgery date as of yet.

Outstanding! Oh, and by the way, I have no patience when it comes to that sort of thing, either :P

IF ONLY my lack of patience was related only to this... I'm impatient with everything!!

I actually plan to learn transcendental meditation this year. It's on my resolution list, right behind "Get this dang surgery done already!!" :)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
