I am so happy for everyone here! I go for my pre-op appt tomorrow morning at 9:40. It still hasn't completely 'registered' I'm really having it done!! My BMI is on the low end (35.9 it was 37 but I've lost a few pounds) and I have high cholesterol and blood pressure. I hope to be off the meds after I have lost some weight! I wish everyone luck and success and may you be blessed :-)

Good luck to you! Reality hit me as I'm getting an EKG and chest XRay. But I'm nervously excited. You'll do great!

So today I found out that the hospital I work at, now has the sleeve covered under the insurance. It is 5000. I am paying 9800. I almost stopped the process and delay my surgery. I was going to go through my company's incsurace. That would delay my surgery for 3-6 months. I know that my mind was made up in April and I wanted to go with the original plan. My knees and ankle need that 3-6 months of weight loss to help them to heal. I felt a little guilty for finding this out this late in the game and I wanted to discuss it with my husband. I told my husband about it and to my surprise he said "have your surgery on Monday ". I was so happy we were on the same page. We usually are and that is why we have been together for 26 years. Married 23. He sees me hurting and not being able to do the things I used to do. I can't chase after the grand girls or even get on the floor and play with them. Before I could drop it like its hot now I drop it pretty fast but getting ups is slow, very slow. I can't wait to be able to dance again. I miss going to the gym and working our for hours. I miss going up 10 flights of stairs. I miss my old life. I hope to be up and running soon.
