So just wanted to give everyone a update. I called my insurance BCBS and they had a answer. They said I was APPROVED, and that I would have to wait my doctor called me. I am so excited about this new journey I'm about to partake in. Please pray for me and thanks for the support

You ladies can call your insurance company at any time after your paperwork is submitted to check the status.

I use the Flintstone with Iron, natrol Biotin fast dissolve, natrol B12 fast dissolve, nature's plus chewable iron, nature made fast dissolve d3. Please do yourself a favor and get the biotin! It helped my Hair loss. Whenever I would stop taking it I would shed a stuffed animal.
I get it all from Amazon.

Yep some non surgery victories :-D Friday I went to the movies with a friend and was able to put both arm rest down and still have plenty or room in my chair :-) Now my niece can hug me and wrap her arms all the way around me :-) oooo... Was able to wear a REALY cute pair or wedges all day :-D Okay I wanna hear some of y'all's now :-D

So i started my pre-diet on May 19th, weight was 309.5, Surgery was June 2nd, weight when came home was 296.5, today im 239.5lbs!!!!!

coffee and I are like this.....and I'm perfectly healthy and alive! In fact I'm having some roasted hazel nut right now...just don't load it down with junk! I use heavy whipping cream as Creamer Because it has 0 carbs and a Splenda pack.

I'm about a month clean and my Wellbutrin seems to help a lot, but a lot of the time it's also pure will power! I want to smoke so bad it's insane. But all I can think about is my dr will not do my surgery if I test positive for nicotine and he will make me go another 3 months.

Vsg 12.12.13, 5'8" tall; hw 293 surgery 240 current 165-169 original goal was 175 got down to 154 but too low for my taste. my happiest zone is 161-165  

I quit smoking using Chantix!! ???? I have been ???????? for 80 days. I smoked the first week and after that I didn't want them. My daughter has a vape with 0 nicotine that I may puff every blue moon just because I like the way the smoke has a cool feeling on my face. (Weird huh)
You can do it, there are plenty of options that are out there these days to assist you.
Good luck ????????

Not to minimize anyone fears but I feel you all will be fine! We have come a long way! Yes we will be judge but guess what? We will look good while others are judging us! We will be able to enjoy our families! I worry about my husband not loving me the same because he LOVES curves, but the truth of the matter is I need this for me! You need this surgery for you!
Meet you on the weight loss bench! ????

@tstarkey704...At least it's done and your moving on! Glad it all went well.
