That def doesn't sound terrible at all! I was thinking the worst! Don't ask me y lol

Thanks guys this def helps! Any kind of info helps!

Thank u miss... Have you had your surgery yet? I feel like my life is sort of coming together after everything I've been threw...

I know it def does! I'm ready to start my life... I really didnt have many hoops to jump threw, just getting a lot of stuff together like the 2 yr weight history was a pain! And the letter from my psych was a nightmare to get but I got it... And you will too! You will do awesome! What are your pre requirements? If u don't mind me asking?

I'm getting my shopping list together and was wondering what types of meat and fishes i should buy and veggies for my pre op diet...

Thanks! I was actually really surprised myself that it was so fast! I was getting ready to start bugging them today lol I have horizon nj direct... Which do u have?

Yup everything went ok with me being on subutex... I'm just a little worried about coming off of it 48 hours before surgery...but I don't have a choice... I def don't won't the pain medicine to not work! This all is just a blessing for all of us! As much as I hate pictures I'll def take before photos!

Thank u so much! I've been struggling my whole life and I finally feel like there is a light at the end of the tunnel! Our journey Is just beginning and I know it won't be easy but it will be worth it! We're all going to do great! Now if these 2 weeks would just fly by that would be awesome ???œ

That's cool that were all starting this journey together! We def have to all keep each other posted....what does your pre ops require? I think mine is high Protein no carbs a week b4

Is your name stef too? I think I start it also on the 22nd... I go for my pre op Monday so I'll find everything out then... Congrats to you too!! It's so exciting... It's cool that well be close together... Don't forget to do before pics! I think u replied to my other post about being on subutex and was so worried about that!

I'm in central jersey, middletown... And I was just approved! Couldn't be more happier!

So my paperwork was submitted Monday, and my dr just called and it was approved!!!! I'm so excited, and happy and anxious! I'm def surprised they approved so fast! My surgery is the 30th! This def has made my day, my weekend, and the rest of my life!

I don't understand these ins company's! We pay them! There suppose to work for us.. Not give us hell about trying to make our lives better!

Wow 23days... I guess it looks like mine is going to be changed from the 30th if they take that long.. ???¢

Only day 3 of being submitted and I'm already getting anxious! It's like a awful waiting game.. The insurance company's make this so difficult! In the meantime I'm probably giving myself an ulcer being so nervous and anxious about finding out if I will be approved.. And my surgery date is may 30th! So I'm worried if they don't make a decision it will be rescheduled...

Wow you look amazing! It's like a totally different person! Get those bathing suits ready! That's the one thing I can't wait to do! I've been so embarrassed I havnt worn a bathing suit without a sun dress in forever! Good luck to u! I can't wait to start my journey my paperwork were all just faxed yest. To the insurance... Say a quick prAyer and keep your fingers crossed for me!

Congrats on your surgery! I'll def keep that in mind when my day comes hopefully sooner then later!

Good luck! You'll do great!

Bb, I think it's terrible the your sisters will not support you! I myself have 2 sisters... And neither one of them want me to have this done either, because my one sister was heavy and lost a great deal if weight "the old fashion wat" she keeps telling me to do the sane! I've done that for years and yes it works for a few lbs n then all comes back! We are trying to get our selfs healthy, as I'm pretty sick and praying this will help! And my parents don't think it's a great idea but they will support me no matter what,, if you ever need to talk or vent, feel free to shoot me an email! Everyone here is great and a great support team!

Thanks Tara, I'll def be "stalking" them by next Monday lol where are you from? How is everything going?

I def have to try and find them, I've heard pretty good things about that.... Do you buy it online? And they have a chicken Soup flavor? I love chocolate! I'll def be living off of chocolate Protein shakes! Lol

Thanks! I'm keeping my fingers crossed, I'm getting really excited because I guess it's becoming even more real... Just don't want to get let down .. But if I do I will def appeal! Have you had your surgery yet?

Thank u guys so much for all your suggestions.... If I don't hear anything I'll try and call Thursday or Friday to double check that they have everything! It would be amazing to have an answer so quick! I'm guessing you guys all had your surgery? How did everything go? And any good Protein shakes that were somewhat enjoyable? Lol

My surgery is sched. For may 30th... My paperwork was just sent out... So my question is when should I start checking the status. I have horizon nj direct access! I'm so anxious, excited, and mostly worried that I'm getting myself so excited and then I won't be approved!

Hi all! My date is scheduled for may 30th! I hope! My insurance stuff just got sent over so if all goes well And they don't take their sweet time I will start my journey on the 30th! Pray that I get approved! So anxious and nervous about being approved! I have horizon nj direct access, and I mean I would think the office wouldn't schedual the surgery if they didnt think I'd be approved right? Good luck everyone! And congrats to all if us! And please keep me in your prayers for my approval!
