Let us know how things go!!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Mine was submitted on June 23 and approved on June 24, the very next day. But, I didn't find out until today when I called the insurance myself because they hadn't sent the notification to the surgeon yet. But, I think 7-10 days is average from the other posts I have read. Ha! "Almost passed out" ....that will be how I will feel when reality hits!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Awesome! Good luck w/ that & keep me posted! I started watching peeps on YouTube & their experience before operation and after....I wld love to do something like that....record while I'm in the hospital and my experience after etc.....so other people can follow and be aware of what to expect....

Update? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I lost 14 lbs my first 3 visits & then I maintained my weight only dropping 1lbs my 5th visit....my PCP Sd "your weight has been remarkably stable"....I'm assuming there was a hint of sarcasm??? I told him I tried best I cld (was on road the last month) to count calories...but was wondering if this was a bad thing only losing 15lbs in 6mo? I was told I only need to lose 18lbs for surgery on my 1st visit... My last visit is nxt Friday & I was debating on doing liquid diet just to shed off those last 3lbs....any suggestions? Or comments?

How did surgery go? How you feeling? How is your pain?? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm scared of people's judgments too...I am conflicted on telling anyone outside my little circle (which is only like 3 people)....I did announce on FB that I'm "dieting" in order to shed weight for my wedding...mainly so when it comes to me losing weight they don't start asking questions.... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm curious what you can eat too, cuz baby food sounds yucky to me ....hoping there's something that I wouldn't mind eating at this stage? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

So do you have cravings for junk food or does the sound of it make you nauseous? Are you only doing shakes/liquid or are you on mushy/solid food now? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
