Still waiting

Well it's been a few days since I've last posted.  I am still waiting to hear back from the surgeon's office as to whether I am actually approved for surgery or not, however my facilitator is positive that it will be approved.  Generally I am in really good health I don't have any of the comorbalities usually associated with obesity and I am greatful!

However, it is still so nerve racking just waiting to find out.  I already know I have been pre-approved for financing for the procedure costs, but I have to let the financing company know the date of surgery and total cost before they will send out their contracts, and then on the other hand Weightlossforever needs the financing documentation completed before they will send out their contracts, so everything is basically just hinging on what my surgeon says.

I found out that I am borderline high risk so I may need to pay additional fees and/or I will be put on a pre-op diet a little sooner than most sleevers.  My facilitator, Deborah who by the way is an amazing person, and very sweet, advised me that normally the pre-op diet is two weeks but they can look at putting me on for four weeks instead to help shrink the size of my liver.

I am trying really hard to remain posititve in my nervous waiting state.  It is a bit of a struggle but for the most part my positive brain prevails!  I think the negativity comes from having tried to go through our Province for this procedure how pretty much literally you have doors slammed in your face, I'm just worried that it's taking too long, that if I was a good candidate I would have heard so by now.

BUT nevertheless I keep going on, continuing to make better food choices!

Well that's all for now I guess.

Later days!
