Looking for new friends. Waiting for surgery.

Juliana,

Thank you so much for the encouraging words. My husband said the same thing to me. He is so supportive. I guess I just needed to hear it said. The Dr office did call me back and told me that everything was approved now and cleared for the insurance and she was passing my chart on to the nurse for scheduling. She said that the nurse should be calling me in 4 to 5 business days. That I would have to see the surgeon again for final details before the surgery, so I'm waiting. But also thank you for your prayers! I believe in prayer! My husband also reminded me that we had put this surgery in God's hands and he had it under control and in His time!

After I wrote this message, I also noticed your weight chart. I was so encouraged by that too. I have lost 12 pounds this month, but my last weight at the Dr.'s office I was 320 too and my goal is 150. I am so proud of your loss so far and I appreciate your support.

vsnowrn, I will be praying for you Thursday morning too! Let us know how you are doing!

missymoo78 I am so glad that you have a date! Do you have to do the two week liquid diet before surgery?

MeMommie,

Apparently not a 2 week. I have to go see the surgeon on the 28th and I'm thinking he may put me on one then. I hope not! But he may very well since I haven't been successful in losing the 10 lbs he wanted me to. I will let you know what he says.

Missymoo,

I just noticed that you are from TN. Do you mind me asking where?
