    I did everything. Sorry for the late response. But, I just finished the pulmonary testing, I saw the psych doctor, I saw the cardiologist and I just need to finish up my 4 more nutrition appointments. I am from NJ
  2. Hi everyone, I am new to this. I began my journey towards a bariatric sleeve in Jan, but stopped going to the nutritionist in March. So, I have started all over. I have already completed my cardiology clearance, got my blood work done, and my 1st nutritionist appointment done down also. Today I did my upper GI scan and it makes me so excited that I am getting closer to my surgery. I have so many questions and watch so many videos on YouTube. I only need to do my pulmonary exam and psych, then 5 more appointments for nutrition which are scheduled 3 weeks apart. I have state insurance and they require 6 consecutive visits. But, my worry is that I complete my appointments and don't lose any weight or get denied. Since March I gained 10 pounds. I am drinking water, which I don't usually do, keeping a journal of my intake of food, high protein low carb, stopped grazing... any tips? Anyone go through state medicaid for sx? Any bumps in the road with weight?

    Wow, that's amazing. And you are almost there! Congrats with only 14 to go! I wish you well on your journey. And I hope that mine goes by successfully just like yours has.
  4. Just trying to see if anyone is from NJ. I am in South Jersey with Virtua medical group. Just trying to see if anyone having or had the procedure has had Amerigroup as their insurance.

    Pre Op Clearances

    Good Luck on your surgery! It is right there. So they won't deny me if I don't lose weight? They want me to start eating in a smaller plate, like the mini plates they put cake in. This had me so stressed out! I thought that I would not be able to get this approved until I lost weight... What if I go up? I mean.. obviously this is why I am here.... I just am anxious and I am just sooooo nervous about my weight and these appointments..
