Waiting Game

[Ga Gurl 30]

Started this journey in October of last year and had my last weigh in on Monday of this week. Started my sugar busters on Tuesday and now waiting to hear from my insurance company on an approval. Struggled a bit the first two days but feeling much better today. I am looking so forward to my new life and new relationship with food............ I know and realize this is a marathon and not a sprint!!!!!!!

Best of luck to you - this is the hard part.. getting through the insurance hoops is never easy.

I remember those days! From June through October last year I thought I'd go crazy! with a capital K! Seriously. My insurance company drove me nuts. Do this, do that, Don't lose any weight, but don't worry about gaining any. Then, literally ten days before the end of my hoop jump process they changed the rules on me and I had to crash off at least five pounds or start the entire process all over again. I made it, just by the skin of my teeth! Then there was the five week nail biter wait for my approval and letter. But it is all worth it. I promise! Because I have my band, it is the best. tool. ever. It is working for me and I am so happy that I went through all of that nonsense.

Hang in there. You'll get there. It feels like forever, right now. But before you know it, you'll be looking back on it all and be so happy that you did it and you will be encouraging someone writing a post like this.
