Feeling not bad still ...

One more day and I'll be sleeved. I have to go into the hospital tomorrow to be monitered for my fluids that will be given to me on the day of surgery. Cardiology is requesting this.? I guess because of the excessive amount of fluids administered for surgery they want me to be monitered the day before to see if I can tolerate the fluids??? I don't know, whatever. I'm really ready for this, as a matter of fact I am looking forward to it, not scared just ready. I am soooo ready to let loose of this ...

Office submitted papers on Monday got a phone call on Wednesday, I'm officially approved for August 26. Hard to explain my feelings, I need pinched, doesn't seem real. You put forth all the effort of getting approved and when it becomes reality it's hard to explain how I feel. Anxious, excited and a big sigh of relief that this Large Women Lifestyle is coming to an end. I hate to wish what is left of summer but I can't wait until August 26.

Just waiting for insurance approval, hopefully July 22 or 29 for surgery! I am so excited and so ready for this new journey to begin.

Saw my surgeon today and all that needs done is paper work sent into insurance for approval, get cardiology clearance letter, get surgery date and do 2 week pre-op and I'm on my way to a whole new way of living. I am so ready to have this done. Thanks to all the post on here that I've been reading for the past 4 months, they have me so prepared for getting sleeved. It's funny I have no fears or even second thoughts about the what if's. I've come to realize that I need this for number one uno ...
