Scared, Excited & Nervous



Recommended Posts

I had my 1st visit on April 1st and completed all the requirements. Then I was just waiting for the call. While waiting I was trying to figure out my option if the insurance company denied my request. This past Friday I got the call that I was approved and my surgery is scheduled for May 8th.

I now scared, excited and nervous all at the same time.

I know how you feel! My insurance company required a 6 month doctor supervised diet, so I had a long time to think about the surgery. However, I was still surprised when I got the call, I could barely process what she was telling me! Good luck and I hope you have a speedy recovery.

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