My Beginnings
Oct 03, 2012
I can honestly say that since my doctor encouraged me to seriously check out weight loss surgery my journey has been both quick and positive. Dr White, my surgeon, requires everyone to attend an informational seminar to get a good idea of what WLS really is and how much effort and change is going to be needed for a person to be successful. After the seminar on June12th I was all in. I saw the pyschologist a few weeks later and started working with my nutritionist throughout the summer. The pysch eval took longer than I expected to come back which probably pushed my date back some but I passed and that's all that really counts. I was finally able to have my consultation with Dr White on August 7th and I received my approval from the insurance company on Aust 10th. I was shocked that they approved me so quickly! I was all set to start fighting for my health that when I got the approval right away I almost didn't know what to do with myself. The last several weeks have been hard but I have also enjoyed them so much. I have been able to see just how much support I do have and what a wonderful group of people I have been able to surround myself with. I am grateful for the pre-op testing also. Mine revealed health issues that I had no idea I was even having. They just confirmed to me that I had made the right decision for myself and my family!
