Preop Update

[Jen - a work in progress 178]

Ok, so here's the brief summary of what's gone on so far

Bariatric orientation.............. June 18

Initial consultation................ June 23

Upper GI study...................... June 27

Dietician meeting................... July 24

Psych Evaluation.................... August 13

Called to submit to insurance... August 14

Surgery approved (YAYYYY!!!!) August 29

I will most likely schedule my surgery for mid October. I need time to submit FMLA paperwork and get coverage at work or I could go sooner.

I wasn't nervous at all in the beginning, but now as things are getting closer to actual surgery I'm feeling a bit nervous. I think I am more worried about the changes my body will go thru and what I'll looo like in the end than I am about the surgery itself.

My HW 256lbs, CW 238, GW 130. I'm 5'6.

Praying things continue to progress smoothly and quickly....
