    I am hoping to have my sleeve done in May. My insurance requires 12 months of family doctor visits before paperwork can be sent for approval. I have had 7 visits so far. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  14. What’s the Most Awkward Part of WLS?

    JoanKB replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
    My daughter met a young man that was working as a clerk at a gas station. He was talking to her and my daughter could tell that he liked her and was going to ask her out. Another girl was working at the gas station too. She knew my daughter from elementary and middle school. She said to the boy in front of my daughter that she used to be fat. He just looked at the girl and said well she's not now. The manager heard the conversation and he fired the girl on the spot. My daughter was so embarrassed. She never did go out with the boy.

    I'm across the river from you in Kenova, WV. Just starting this journey. My insurance requires 12 months of visits with PCP. I have only done 1 so far, but I have all of them scheduled. It's hard to wait though. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  16. Where you all from?

    JoanKB replied to Brandi W's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Hi, I am from a small town outside of Huntington, WV. My insurance requires 12 consecutive monthly visits to the doctor before they will consider the surgery. I am just getting started on this journey. We are talking about surgery sometime in 2017. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
