RDCLambert 39 Posted October 31, 2013 Thanks SoccerMomma73 and RDCLambert! To RDCLambert' date=' I believe you've done everything you can do for now. I don't know your husband or any other support people you have in your life. But your comments about them, especially your husband, indicate you DO have their support. And as you said, if you can handle a C-section, which I, as a guy, can only be in awe of, you can handle the RNY! [/quote'] Thanks!! I worry too much...at least I know that about me so that helps lol. I love yoyr surgery date. 12/31 right ? New year. New you!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

u-no-it 28 Posted October 31, 2013 So happy to see so many new people in the group! Yay for all the new surgery dates and approvals! I submit mine 11/25 and hopefully no issues with a 12/18 surgery date! Its a week before Christmas and with a husband on midnight shift and a 1 year old..this wont be easy. But it will be worth it. Really struggling with this but I have to hope Im making the right choice. :/ RCDLambert, You are doing the right thing. It is nyhe anticipation that is hard and makes you think more and more about the unknown. That is what makes us crazy. Just know that you will suceed and not inky will your child and husband be there for you ..you will be there for them!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mskami77 295 Posted November 1, 2013 Mskami that's right around the corner wow! How long have you been waiting for a date ? I just my insurance approval. I finished all of my requirements on October 8th. Submitted to insurance on the 24th approved on the 29th and a date today. So I guess I waited 21 days. I can't believe it happened so fast. I started the process on July so this is crazy fast. 1 LuminousLife reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
