Worried and scared, feeling alone
I have learned that obesity is different for us all. Don't let the number determine your quality of life. I have a tentative surgery date of 02/10. I pray that God watches over me. I wish you the best on your weight loss journey.

My request but they dont see the clinical images. The representative stated that they do have another department that updates that information. It could take up 24 hour to update. Has anyone had that issue before? She also said my projected surgery date is 2/14. What a great Valentine Day gift, this is my husbands insurance. Lol. Any additional help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you all. Stay blessed.

It sounds like all the chewable have the gritty taste. I really can't handle the gritty taste. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Yes, my insurance (aetna) required that I see both my dietician and PCP for 90 days. I guess being denied has crossed my mind, but I feel very confident everything will smoothly. Thank you for support.

Help....... The original tablets were too big. I decided to try Bariatric Advantage chewable, caramel. VERY gritty. Bad after taste. So I'm back to the large pills. I want to try the Critical petites. Has anyone tried these? Bariatric advantage agent suggested wild cherry chewable. If anyone has any suggestions please share. Thanks

During my youth years, I was a average size. It all started during my college years. Found the love of my life and here came more weight. We had a son and I gained over 75lbs. I started my bariatric surgery journey in September 2013. I attended a information class and stopped smoking the next day. Currently, I weight 358, my highest weight ever. I dont even remember hitting the 300's to be honest. Obesity is real. Well next week is my final appointment with my dietician and my paperwork will be submitted. I'm excited, scared, and hopeful. I welcome any type of support or suggestions.
