    Anyone who has had Cigna who had sleeve this year?

    Well, in the last three days, (yes, ive called daily) I've gone from received, to required more clinical information, to medical review.... Frankly, the reps there may all be calling it the same thing, I don't care as long as it makes me think I'm closer to being approved! I wonder what they will say tomorrow...

    BJs Bariatrics?

    Has anyone had any issues with their customer service? I ordered a sample pack of nectar, and found out right away that the order was back ordered... I sent a few emails, and 10 days after my original email, I got a response explaining one flavor was on back order. No problem, they offered to ship everything but the one flavor, and then ship the last packet when it came in. That was 10 days ago... Still no nectar. The customer service guy I emailed seemed nice, took responsibility, etc., but I still haven't gotten my order. Has anyone had a similar experience?

    July sleevers?

    I'll either (hopefully) be late June, or early July-July is probably more realistic, so here I am! I have just submitted to insurance yesterday!

    I may be going crazy!

    I'm actually considering trying a 'liquid diet for a day' to practice for my 2 week pre-op diet...
  10. So, I've bought the variety pack, and started with the alpine punch. It was actually ok. I tried it very cold, and though it is slightly chalky, and gives you that type of feel in your mouth after drinking it, I could definitely drink those during my liquid/whole liquid phases of my diet! I'll try another tomorrow.

    Who is pre-op and who is post op?

    I am possibly one month, or just over one month pre-op. my insurance was submitted for insurance this last Tuesday, and my coordinator says that assuming the testing turns out ok, it will be within a month till surgery!
  13. I haven't been fond of the shaks I've tried yet, but I've just got some nectar in the mail, and I'm ordering some unjury, as I've heard both of those two are palatable.
  14. I would think so that liquids don't fill you up?
  15. That's not just hospitals there, that is hospitals everywhere

    I plan on doing the same. Did you Call pre approvals or pre authorization or who?
  17. My insurance coordinator let me know that everything was submitted to insurance today, and I could be in surgery within a month!

    "Skinny Thinking" book club?

    Is there information specific to wls out just dietingin general?
  19. How would it compare to say weight loss surgery for dummies?
  20. So, I have promised myself I'd be compliant with my Cpap, and just like before, I am awake more often with it than without it... My doc prescribed ambien, but I don't want to get addicted... So here I am at 3:30, wide awake
