I have to do the 6 month supervised weigh in/diet too. It's so discouraging, because it seems like it'll take forever to actually get the surgery I guess it's good though, because it really helps to take things slow and make sure you're making the right decision. Good luck

8000.00 Self Pay In The Us!

Ahh that's so cheap!! Good for you!! Good luck -
I'd say no! While those claim to be herbal, they have a TON of caffeine. I haven't had the surgery yet, but I assume after the VSG we can't have caffeine.

Hi CR. are you from NY? Just curious, because I also attended a seminar last night and am ready to begin the process. It is going to take a long time and it will seem overwhelming at times, but I think anything worth having is worth fighting for.

Hi! I'm from Nassau County in Ling Island and I'm pre-op -
I would call and find out the exact requirements. Usually obstructive sleep apnea is recognized as a co-morb.

My UHC plan is 35-39 bmi with one documented co-morbidity or a 40+ bmi with no co-morbities. Good luck in the process...I hope UHC is good with not throwing out too many hoops =\

United Healthcare - Still Waiting On Approval ...
lovealways replied to Estrovan's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oh yes...I've seen it take people 6+ months, so yours was fast! I'm hoping I can get everything done in two months, but my surgeon seems to require more than UHC does. Did you have to do a sleep study or a stress test -

This question is for anyone with UHC (whatever plan)...how long did your whole process take from start to finish? Did your UHC plan require 6 month weigh ins? Ty -
This Surgery Is All I Think About

ahhh saw the post that says "ignore" after commenting here. Hopefully this thread will be deleted...lol

is that a joke or is this serious? lol. I'm not going to lie and couldn't help but laugh when I read this. If this is the case, usually when we give up something important to us (like food) we usually substitute it with something else that provides somewhat of the same consolation to us. It's perfectly fine, whatever it is, up until it begins to interfere with every day life, etc.

Looking For New Yorks Sleevers
lovealways replied to Minichick's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi guys! I'm not too far from you guys...I'm in Nassau County on Long Island. I'm only starting out and have the seminar this Thursday. What insurance do you both have?? I'm excited to have met other NYers -
This Surgery Is All I Think About
lovealways replied to skinnycupcake13's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ah, I know what you mean about constantly thinking about the surgery! Good luck to you! -
You should be fine as long as your BPD is stabilized with either meds or therapy. I think any type of mental illness can increase in severity after this surgery if not kept in check before and after. Since you are self-pay, I don't think you should have too much of a problem. Good luck
