HAVE A SURGERY DATE!

Yayyyyy!!  I've been waiting so long for this!!

And who says you can't make the insurance company comply with your every whim??  MUAHHAHAHHHAH.  ahem.

Anyway, it was going to take a while (ok, so "a while" in my book is anything longer than what I'm willing to wait for.  It was going to take about a week) for in my insurance company to go over my file - I have Blue Cross Blue Shield Federal - but I called them 2 days after my paperwork was submitted and they called me back the next day and said I was approved!

Yay!  My surgery is tomorrow afternoon at 4p.  I'll be getting Roux en Y gastric bypass surgery, as well as getting my lap band removed.  I'm so ready for this, it's not even funny.  I haven't updated in a while, but that's because I really didn't know what to write about.  BUT NOW I have something write about!

I be sure to keep you guys updated on what's going on with the surgery.  I think I'll have to stay in the hospital for a night, but I'm not really that worried about it.  I'm just ready to get this over with and get my weight loss back on track!

I've been thinking about what I eat, and I think that I'll post like a daily meal plan on here of what I ate that day like one day per week or something.  Just so you guys don't get bored with what I'm eating if I post it too much lol.

Roux en Y SURGERY DATE!!

Yayyy! I don't know if you guys have been following my ordeal with my rude surgeon, but I'm completely DONE with working with him, and I have a new surgeon!

He is SO awesome!  I just got my EGD and psych eval today and I have a tentative surgery date scheduled for 4 Aug!!!  He wants to do the Roux en Y Gastric Bypass, and after having everything explained to me by him, I'm all for it as well!  I'm so ready!

The lady in the office just has to fax over paperwork to my insurance (Blue Cross Blue Shield Federal) and I'm good to go!  From what I've heard, the BCBS Federal program is a lot more accomadating than the regular BCBS.  Also, when I got my lapband in the first place, they approved me in about 24 hours, so I'm not really worried.  MAYBE I'll even get to have my surgery earlier than that!  That would be awesome, but if not, 4 Aug is really good for me as well.  :)

I'll keep you guys updated as usual :)
