I will probably be joining you in March. I'm waiting on insurance approval at the moment, and it's basically taking forever (3 days so far lol). I was hoping for Feb, but paperwork submission had some hangups, and it doesn't seem feasible now. I've been having food funerals in preparation for the coming weeks, culminating in a group of my friends meeting up for sushi this weekend. Then, I'm off the carbs officially. I've already cut out sodas, snacky foods, and coffee.

Where in LA? I'm with Dr. Moore and LA Surgical Specialists out of New Orleans. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Did they give you any more info on this? Who's your doctor? I'm going through Louisiana Surgical Specialists and using Dr. Moore. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Had my last appointment yesterday, sent everything to my surgeons office last night, and today they said, "Oh, we will get to that sometime next week".... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have my last primary visit on Thursday and submitting to insurance on Friday. I'm super anxious about the wait time on insurance. How long did it take for everyone else? Were you approved the first go around? I'm afraid I didn't lose enough weight in the 6 month period (6 pounds).

Yes, the FB group is private. You have to be approved to join and no posts have showed up in my friends feeds (I've asked lol). It's Sleeve Sisters February 2017, if you're looking for it.

I'm hoping for February as well! My last PCP appointment is Feb 2, and then, everything will go to insurance. Hopefully I'll get a surgery date for the end of Feb or beginning of March! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
