On Monday I faxed the last of my paper work to my doctors office so they could summit everything to the insurance company for my approval. I was so nervous that maybe I wouldn't get approved after all the steps and requirement you need to go through to get approved. Well I'm so happy and excited to say that I called my doc office today to see if they sent all my paper work to insurance company. They thought I was calling because I received my approval letter in the mail. I said know I didn't an they said we'll your approved we need to schedule you an appointment for your surgery date! I'm super happy and thankful to continue this blessing of a journey.

Hey there!

Im super interested in your journey. And what you did to get approved.

Technically I'll finish my insurance prereqs by the end of January then I'll send in for my approval.

Currently I am seeing a nutritionist and also registered with weigh****chers as well as an exercise plan. 

Im in the bmi requirement for my insurance but I don't have any health issues other then the fact that I'm obese. 

I'd love to get in contact with you and discuss things. 

Btw Congrats and wish you a wonderful journey.
