Waiting for APPROVAL!

My surgeon's office called today! I was at work, but my husband (who is 2 yrs out from his GB with the same surgeon) was my advocate! They asked if I had made an appointment for the Sleep Study, which I hadn't, because when I met the BMI requirement of 40.0, we decided that I'd rather wait and see if insurance denied me to find out if I have sleep apnea to try to then get approval. For the record, I do NOT think I have sleep apnea and snore only when I'm congested/stuffy or extremely exhausted...so pretty rare and not very loud (or so I've been told). The office just wanted to cross our fingers and hope I had it, in the event I didn't meet the BMI. My BMI is 40.0 exactly... So my husband reminded them that I met the BMI etc etc etc. SOOOOOO they said they would submit a request for surgery approval for Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass!! WOOHOO!!!
I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy and excited!
I thought that maybe I would hear from them next Monday, but not already today. I just had my psych evaluation on Monday, he said the surgeon would have it Friday, that's tomorrow.So it's all going so fast so far and so smooth. I feel like it's almost too good to be true. Like I am going to get a call saying "Sorry your insurance denied it," or something. However, I am trying to be optimistic and hopeful. But the pessimist in me won't shut up sometimes. I keep repeating to myself "keep your eye on the prize, keep your eye on the prize."... and keep in mind that the first month I should lose about 30-40 lbs... The most weight I have ever lost consistently and consecutively was after my son, Hunter, was born...I lost about 40 lbs, with the help of phentermine (prescription diet pills), over the period of about 6 months. So 1 month and the same result, AMAZING. Don't get me wrong, I totally know that this is not the MAGIC CURE for my weight "problem." I have seen my husband weigh every meal, take lots of vitamins and do all the things it takes to make this surgery a success. As it has been said a million times in this process (however short) this surgery is a TOOL not a CURE. I need this tool to help me, once and for all, get HEALTHY and stay HEALTHY. It's 90% about health and 10% looks for me. I know I am going to have some saggy excess skin (eew!) , might lose some hair (wah!), can't binge on ice cream or Chili's Molten Lava Cake (so sad!) but every good thing usually results from some kind of sacrifice. If I want to live in a house (good thing), I have to work (sacrifice). So this is it...
Now it's the waiting game... Hopefully next Monday will be one of the happiest day of my life and I will get the APPROVAL I've been waiting for... Cross your fingers with me!
