Congrats!! I'm sure it feels amazing!!

You look amazing!! But you were a "sassy" big girl!!

I was wondering if the time off for the post op recovery period was paid by short term disability or not. Obviously this is an elective surgery but I wasn't sure how that worked. It probably just depends on your company? Anyone able to share?

Yes I'm starting to see that. I did get a call from the insurance coordinator today saying I didn't need to do anything additional...so that was positive!

Thanks Dooter..I guess i'm just anxious. I know that all the testing, sleep studies, psych visits, etc., are all for my good. Just need to calm down and pump my brakes!!

So after being told by the Drs office that all of my info had been submitted to insurance for approval...I get a call from my Nurse advocate with the insurance company to give me a laundry list of info that they have yet to submit. Apparently the info was submitted some time ago and requests for additional info have not been fulfilled. And come to find out..I need additional clearance from a cardiologist. Man I thought this process would be so much easier!! Especially since I did everything that the docs office asked for. Having such a grrrrr moment!!

Well wishes for tomorrow. I'm sure you will do great!!

You look A-MAZING!! Congrats and I wish you much success in the future! I am waiting on insurance approval but I have a starting weight very similar to yours. So your progress is extremely motivating for me!! Thanks for sharing.

Congratulations!! I was submitted for insurance approval yesterday so hopefully this process moves fairly quickly. How long did yours take?
