I have 4 steps left to finish to get my RNY surgery:
- Endoscopy – shouldn’t be any surprises there, but because I have acid reflux they require it. That is coming up in 4 days.
- Psych Eval – I thought this was going to be a major hold up but they switched docs and this should be completed a week from today.
- Lose 25 Pounds – I’m well on the way to this one. I’ve made several changes to eat much better (far from great, but better than I was) and I’ve lost over half of that already. I suspect that the 2 weeks before surgery when I make 2 major changes in food intake, the rest will come of. I hope to have 30-40 off by surgery.
- Get A Loan – Our insurance sucks and is not covering ANYTHING. I could write a whole post on this but it is what it is.
I’ve been putting that last one off for fear of the bank saying “NO”…but today I was pre-approved for more than the amount by my credit union! One more step down! We’ve been saving some and I need to see exactly what we have saved to know what I will need exactly but that wont be a problem!
I told myself I wasn’t going to believe this would happen until I woke up from surgery, but I’m starting have a bit of belief in it all!
Step by step, we are getting closer to this being a reality!
