|  I have all my presurg. appts scheduled I'm so thrilled to finally be doing SOMETHING rather than sitting an waiting. I go on May 15, Thursday for a THREE HOUR nutrition appt. Then June 10 for a 30 minute consult, June 12 for my psych eval. and the Nutritionist again July 7 for a 30 minute consult. AFter that I believe they submit it to my insurance for final approval before my appt with the surgeon and scheduling a surgery date. It's all going to happen faster than I thought. I'm so excited. I'm suppose to take a 3 day food journal of what I've eaten to my first 3 hr consult. I still eat crappy so I'm a bit ashamed of what I've eaten, or I'll think SHE will think it's bad. Oh well. That's what this is all for right?? Just wanted to share how quickly things are going.... time is going to fly by.... especially with it being summer.

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass   | Congrats! Man when that ball starts rolling it is amazing how fast it goes! LOL re: the nutritionist. He/she knows you are still eating crappy. Most of us did in our saying goodbye to our favorite foods. I gained a couple pounds from 6 months before to one month before. Be honest so the nutritionist can do his/her job most efficiently and honestly for you. My 2 cents...your mileage may vary.

| Super Moderator  | Congratulations!!! Yes, honesty is the best policy going through all the preapproval stuff. Medical/comedical pros know exactly what you are doing, even if you don't say so. We are trained to see through all the screens and get the correct picture.  We are also trained not to make judgements, but to help you figure out what works best for you. So be honest with your food journal. That way, you yourself will be able to see clearly what threr is that must be addressed. ((((((HUGS)))))) All your appts will fly by, so wishing you that you get your approval and date smoothly.
