I live in McKinney. Be pacient and perhaps your new insurance will cover it. I know you want it to happen now, but use this time to prepare yourself mentally and emotionally. Also, why don't you go ahead and start a low fat, low calorie diet. That way you will be making some progress and won't just be in "wait" mode. I use
www.thedailyplate.com to track my food and water intake every day, and I highly recommend that. Plus, it's free! Good luck to you!
