They have different flavors like orange tangerine or citrus... I take the orange tangerine one and it’s decent

I met my surgery for an initial consultation and then completed all the insurance requirements and a month before my surgery I met with the surgeon again to ensure that I was ok and to get a more concrete date on the books for surgery. I had the option to have surgery 2 weeks later but opted for a latter date and was sleeved on 12/22. Good luck on your journey! HW:232 SW:225 CW: 209 and counting

So far all stomach weight but I can tell that my waist is smaller too

Trying to remember not to eat and drink together and when drinking Water not to gulp it down [emoji849]

I had my surgery on 12/22 and as of today I am ready to go back to work but I have opted to take 2.5 weeks. In which I will be returning back on 1/8....

I have BCBS and I was approved within 24 hours and I gained a whopping 5 LBs my 5th month in my pre-op appointments. Don’t worry so much they look at initial weight as a factor for approval and you can call the insurance company to get very specific details of what you’re required to do to ensure you get approved. Not sure what your company wants by my BCBS NY only wanted psych evaluation, 6 months of PCP weigh-ins and medical clearance from primary physician and like I said my approval was completed with 24 hours and I was sleeved 1 week ago 12/22 HW: 232 SW: 225 CW: 215 5’3”

Chapstick, loose clothing, phone/charger/earphones & eye mask is all I needed... you won’t be doing much the first day of surgery except resting and I was fortunate to leave the next day

Thank you to everyone that responded... I’m doing a lot better than I thought I would.... Surgery was quick and easy... no major pain just soreness at the incisions and surprisingly I’m getting my fluids in, although I do have to constantly remind myself to drink water, etc. Hoping I advance in diet when I see her for my 1 week post-op check up! Thank you all for the well wishes

All types of emotions running through my head but I’ve worked way too hard to back out now. I’ll be headed into the OR in a few hours. Soon to be on the LOSERS BENCH.. My mind is racing wish me luck fellow pals

I just started my pre-op diet 12/8 officially although I’ve been weening my way off of caffeine, sugary foods and I’m allowed one low calorie meal for dinner but I’m curious if you don’t lose the pre-op weight that the surgeon set will they deny you the surgery?

Most places use your initial weight when submitting insurance approval documentation

It’s going to be blood work, EKG & chest x-rays and the readings/ correspondences in which they send to the surgeon are only good for 30 days.

My approval took 24 hours
