I just got the call! I am approved! OMG!!! I am so excited..... I have been making myself crazy for weeks!

I didn't really even start this venture until mid-late summer and it really has happened so fast, but the wait for that call has been horrendous. I still have to wait for the scheduling call now, which could be next week, but at least I know this is going to happen!

Thank goodness! 38 years of fighting for results that don't last, now even though I have to fight for my life; it will be worth it and hopefully maintenance in the end will be the only fight I have left.

So glad I have a place to share, even though no may listen; it's still an outlet - so thank you!

I have decided not to tell family except husband and my kids. This is my on going journey and I don't want anyone clouding my decisions or judgements.

Congratulations!!I too received my approval after initially being filed Nov. 5th. Called EVERY day since and finally after the surgeon's office provided the fax confirmation, the insurance company admitted that it was misfiled and a supervisor had it sent for review today. They called back within 10 minutes and provided a reference #. Same as you, just waiting for a scheduler to call now. Excited and nervous all at the same time. Good Luck to you!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
