Starting my journey

Hi Everyone!

I am getting ready to start my journey. I had to wait a year since starting my health insurance before I could be covered for surgery. I will be eligible as of September 1, and I have an alert on my phone to make my phone call.

I am here seeking guidance and support. I hear nothing but great things from the people that underwent the surgery. I have battled obesity since I was a kid, so my doctor said that this is the best path for me since I am fighting a battle with my genes as my PCP puts it.
 
Welcome! Glad you found the group. Everyone here is at all different stages of the journey. I have 2 appointments left before my info is sent to my insurance for approval. I’m to the, let’s get this over with already!, stage LOL Which surgery are you having?
 
Welcome to the group! Congrats on getting through that long year, especially one filled with such craziness as this one. Best of luck that everything goes smoothly after Sept 1!
