WIth my surgeon, that is 😜

April 29th, the big day. Got the call today that my insurance approved and I scheduled it today. They wanted me to have the surgery next week but I couldnt get all my ducks in a row that quick.

Started my pre-op diet today, that'll give me an even 2 weeks to shrink that liver. Looking forward to seeing what I weigh after 2 weeks also.

Now im gonna go take a bunch of before pictures, do some measurements and buy some bariatric Vitamins online.

Thank you to everyone who has shared their stories and advice, Im so happy to be one of you!!!

My coordinator today gave me my surgery date and she hasn't even submitted to insurance. When I asked her why I have a date before sending to insurance she said you are ok you will be approved

thanks for the reply, ya i guess im just a worrier. Coordinator at surgeons office seemed to think I'd get approved but I still worry.

Hi, Im currently waiting for insurance to approve/deny my surgery. I did everything insurance required, I have a BMI of 37.4 with several co-morbidities. Super nervous about being denied. Curious to see others experiences with being denied and the reasons the insurance denied you?
