Cool Hello everyone!

Hello,
My name is Michael. I have been reading the threads for sometime now and have finally decided to post! I started going through the process in November. I finally finished everything at the end of March and was surprised to get a call from Lisa last week. I got APPROVED on the first try! My surgery date is May 11th. I am super excited and nervous at the same time. Dr. Callery will be doing my surgery so I know I am in good hands.

Michael

Welcome Michael and congrats on your approval and on your upcoming surgery date, You are in very good hand with Dr. C I had my Surgery done by his associate Dr. Potts, it wont hit you about the surgery until you are counting backwards on the table.....just dont be like me and think you are going to wake up skinny...lol...I woke up and asked my daughter do I look any skinnier? she just laughed I said well I guess it will take time.....Good luck and we look forward to hearing all about how things are going.
