Thanks Eric....I just have to get the Sleep study done and lose 10lbs...that scares me more than anything...but the dr. told me to go on a liquid diet and the 10 lbs will go quick...he said you will be to busy getting ready for your "new life"

I am still in shock....is this normal? I almost don't believe i am approved....

Congrats! That's great and coming up really quick.

btw your thread title made me hear that drive time commercial in my head. I don't know if they have them outside of Az but it made me laugh.
