I'm so nervous as my surgery date approaches which is 12-11-15. But I am determined to be the poster boy of the gastric sleeve!!

Hello everyone I am from Chicago and Cigna is my insurance carrier. I will be on month 3 of my 3 month supervised weight loss program on 8-25. I still have to do a sleep study next month, a second ekg next month and meet with my pcp. After those appointments I will almost be at the approval process and hope to have surgery in early December. Im 5"9 290lbs and want to shed 120lbs of this unwanted weight. I am so excited about surgery and it seems like its all I can think of at this point! Im so glad to read about other people going thru this journey as it seems like im the only one at times. Good luck everybody! Now lets shed these lbs together!!!

Omg I just got approved by Cigna today after two weeks and I'm so happy. It would have been a quicker approval process but Cigna was saying that my dietician didn't add the proper notes to the claim so after contacting my dietician she sent over everything they needed. I also got my surgery date of 12-11-15 today also!

Well yesterday I finished my last 3 month nut app and the day before that I finished my last egd! Yesterday I scheduled my prep group for 10-5-15 so now I just have to wait on the results of my egd before they submit to insurance. Man oh man I am so excited and all I can think of is this approval!

You were right MrsRoboto I called Cigna today and they do not require any weight loss! Thank god

That sounds slot easier than the clear liquid diet

So Radar u dont have to do a 2 week liquid diet? ?

I've been drinking a lot of green tea myself. It has always settled my stomach but I also find it helps with hunger.

Im so happy 4 u! I just completed my sleep study this morning. All I have left on my to do list is a meeting with my pcp next week a ekg on the 24th and my last nut appointment on the 25th. Im hoping to get sleeved by my birthday also which is 10/22! Im also having my surgery at U of C by doctor Pratchand.

Just did my second Nut appointment. My last one is Sept. 25 and on to the approval process! Getting closer and feeling super anxious.
