Keep in mind that not only does it take up a month for approval from insurance, but your surgeon's office is probably already booking surgeries out six weeks in advance too, so it might take some time to get on their schedule.

Just keep calling the insurance company and ask them. They told me one month and it actually took two days and they approved it. Wish you well

My information was submitted to my insurance company today for my revision from sleeve to bypass. I am praying that I get an approval fast, so ready for this surgery to work this time. I graduate in July with my BS and hoping that I am well after the surgery to walk across the stage. Praying I get approved and have the surgery in May. My surgeon stated that my insurance company takes about a month for approval praying it doesn’t take a month for approval.

My sister made me the best devil eggs. I am 15 days post op however when I fixed scramble eggs they were horrible. Almost every soft and puréed food I eat is horrible except cream of wheat and devil eggs. I still love cheese thank God but don't eat much don't want to be constipated ????????

Hi everyone I was sleeved on Friday and today is Monday and I am still in the hospital. Still have vomiting issues and both hands are swollen from the IV still in a lot of pain. My stomach doesn't look bad at all. I pray that I can go home today. I can't say that I regret having the surgery because I believe this to shall pass. Please send me up a prayer

Lifeafter40 got a reaction from Blue Sky in Firming Lotion April 1, 2015

Hi everyone I was sleeve 3/20 and I purchased Coco butter firming lotion to help prevent loose skin. It may not 100% prevent it but at lease I am doing something to help. Start using a firming lotion of your choice before the weight start falling off but if you hadn't reach your goal start using its not to late. I lost 120 pounds on weight watchers but gain it all back however I didn't have loose skin because of the firming lotion and I used Jillian Michaels No More Trouble Zones DVD for 7 months and it worked. This is totally from my experience and since history repeat itself I am doing it again but want allow history to repeat with gaining the weight back after surgery because I feel that God gave me s second chance to get it right????????????
