I've heard that too. Thanks for the encouraging words.

So, it looks like you'll have the surgery first. Then you can tell me ALL about it. I bet you are getting so excited...

LOL you have NOOO idea. A co-worker recently had the surgery and I was telling her about it grinning like a kid at Christmas. I can't wait, only 7 more days :blushing:

Oh man, I can't wait to get it done. I wanna feel like that! UGH!

Well, just found out I'm approved!!!! I guess my insurance hadn't received all my paperwork so they denied it yesterday only to get the paperwork and approve it today!!! Holly is scheduling my surgery now!

YIPPEEE!!!

AWESOME!!!!!!! Does this mean you're still set for the 16th? Mine is at 4:00, would be so cool to do this together!!!

Congratulations - *doing a happy dance for you*:thumbup::thumbup::frown::seeya:

HAHAHA! Mine is scheduled at 5pm, right after you! How funny is that?!?!?! OMG, I'm so excited I can hardly stand myself.

OK, so my pre-op appt is on the 15th and I also have the nutritional orientation from 1-3 that same day. When is yours?

[kyleegirl01 33]

My bariatric review is also on the 15th at 1pm. I'll see you then!

To anyone else reading this thread - Myself and mmmorgan are both proof that an initial denial is NOT the time to give up. Let your doctor fight for you, they will trust us they will :laugh:.

I cannot wait for the 16th!

So Holly called me this morning and moved my surgery up to 1 pm on Wednesday instead of 5 pm. YAY! The sooner the better. Are you staying the night in the hospital? I'm planning on it.

I'm soooooo nervous!!!!!
