Default Omg!!!

I can't believe this! I am in shock!!!
I just heard from my doctors office, and they told me that I will be having the surgery June 18th!!! Thats just 1 week from this Monday!
Turns out the Dr. that is leaving the hospital did some switching around, and made a spot for me.
I don't know if I should dance, or cry right now.
I'm scared about having it done, but I'm thrilled that it will be done so soon.
I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE IT

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
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.

Congrats on getting your surgery date!! Soon you'll be on the losing side. It's very normal to be scared, nervous and excited--this is a big thing happening to you--but if you did all your homework and are feeling good about everything--then know you (and the rest of us) are doing or have done what we need to get ourselves healthy. Best of luck-let us know how you are doing once you have the surgery--or if you need support before, know we are all here for you.

We are 'WAYWARD HO" and not looking back. If you ever want to IM me go for it. Race you to the finish line. . Did I make you feel better by being so silly. Did me. Ha ha. Mattie
