Default I have a surgery date

I was called by the office and told my surgery date is october 8th! I don't know why I have to wait so long I have been done with all the prelims for weeks now but everything happens for a reason so I'm not gonna get that upset over it. I will need all your support you have to give cause I am really nervous now. I know it's gonna be worth it and it is something I have to do to get healthy.

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.

I did ask them why and they said that it was because it was my Doctors first opening. One of the Doctors left the practice to move back home so the others had to take his case load. That is the only reason that makes sense. I'm ok with it now. Gives me more time to prep although I have the kind of personality that wants to get things done NOW. Patience is NOT one of my strong points.
You are no long "wanna be" you are skinny Joanne. My husband is from St. Louis. I've been a few times with him.

the time will probably go by very quickly ~ october "seems" to be far away, but it really isn't.

if you ever come back to saint louis you'll have to give me a shout out!

That's just over 10 weeks, it will fly by. Besides, if you have let them know that you're ready to roll, they should keep you in mind for cancellations~~~
