Congrats to you!! A short approval is what everyone hopes for, sadly though, for most it doesn't happen. Your lucky! For me, approval via insurance was quick as well...10 days. However, I waited 4 1/2 months to have the surgery because I wanted it on my schedule...so it was a personal decision. A lot of others count the time they spend doing the 6 month required diet as well, so that adds into the time spent as well. To many variables as you can see, to give you a strait answer. 
Congrats on your approval, we will be waiting to hear about your next big milestone..THE DATE! Welcome!
