I wouldn't think it was an issue. Everyone heals at a different rate, and you could be healing a bit faster. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

March 12th! Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

Definitely! They originally offered me the 6th, but I have too many obligations at work that day and the rest of that week, so I opted for the 12th. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

I am so excited. I got insurance approval in less than 24 hours, and met with my surgeon yesterday. I want this week to fly by, because I can't wait to start my new life. Anyone else scheduled for the week of March 12 - March 16? Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

Same to you!! My cousin had a revision from lap band to sleeve, and she feels so much better. She was sick for so long. Good luck to you!

Yeah, I'm definitely hoping before June. I don't have any time requirements for weight loss. Just to lose the 5% and I'm already half way through that. So I'm hoping the insurance approval won't take long (I have good insurance through the hospital I work at, which is where I'll have the surgery) so I didn't have too many requirements.

I'm almost done with my prerequisites for surgery (psych appointment next week, last class beginning of march). I'm curious how long it took for you to get your insurance approval and your visit where you schedule your surgery? Since my class is March 2nd, I'm hoping to have insurance approval within a week after that, and then hopefully be scheduled for the end of March/beginning of April. I'm just wondering how realistic this is, and what your experiences are. Thanks!
