No case manager and i went through my primary doctor and he referred me to the nutritionist in my same health plan Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

I have United healthcare and they required me a 6 months supervised doctor diet, they approved me within a week after i met their requirements...the only thing is that my insurance went up right before my surgery and instead of paying $1700 i will be paying $4800...

My insurance only required me to do the six months supervised diet but it didn't required me to lose any weight as long as i went every month with out missing any appointments... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

I was told the same thing, my doctor told there was a chance I wouldn't get sleeved the same day but thank God I woke up sleeved the same day...was banded for 4 years with no complications except that I had gained 30lbs back so that's why I decided to get sleeved...

I had the lap band for 4 years and never had any problems with it until it stopped working for me and gain almost 30lbs back so I decided to get sleeved...I got sleeved June 23rd and so far I been doing great with no complications and hope to continue doing the same! My first post op appointment was 2 weeks after my surgery and lost 17lbs... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

@@denise250 I'm doing great and hope to continue doing the same. I was never in much pain so didn't need pain medication after 2nd day after surgery. I went to my first post op appointment on July 7th and had lost 17 lbs in 2 weeks...I'm in the puree stage and doing good no problems swallowing so far. The only problem for me is getting all my liquids in, it seems like I need more hours in a day but other than that no regrets. Thanks for asking!????
