Day 4 Post-Op
teacherlady095 and one other reacted to frust8 for a post in a topic
You are probably still retaining your surgery fluids, once you get rid of them you'll be losing like a jackrabbit! And then I bet you'll be posting good news week by week! Congratulations on your successful surgery. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app -

Just Started Journey... Thoughts and Concerns
Mattymatt reacted to Creekimp13 for a post in a topic
I have Blue Cross. My doctor's office processed everything for me. Like you, I was nervous about some last minute denial of benefits. Toward the end, my insurance company sent me an approval letter that outlined the date, the surgery, and that it was approved. Maybe ask your insurance company if they do that? It put my mind at ease to have it in writing that everything was covered. -

Question for the post op ladies! (Men, beware!)
JanineVSG reacted to TakingABreak for a post in a topic
That does stink that it basically adds a stall week per month because of our stupid menstrual cycle. Joys of womanhood I guess! I remind myself about how many calories equals a pound each time I've stepped on the scale this week. It is super frustrating. I've fluctuated all the way to +4lbs. And then the next morning I will be down 2lbs and so on.... Next month when it is this time, I won't even weigh in. It's too stressful. -

Approval
GirlShrinking reacted to ALFxRNY for a post in a topic
I did my upper endoscopy yesterday. Aside from the IV needle in the hand, it was pretty painless. Also they are more than likely going to have you do a urine sample for pregnancy testing. The actual procedure is only 10-15 minutes but after they let you sleep off the anesthetic it’s about 45 minutes. Hope your barium swallow test went well today. And the nutrition appointments fly by pretty quickly [emoji846] -

I’m 27 and live in Texas. I started the whole process in November and just got approval by my insurance company. I’ll be having surgery May 29th right after the school year ends. I’m both excited and nervous. -
