    Mamsmith83 got a reaction from Jumanna in Finished all my pre-requisites... everything will be sent to insurance next week! NERVOUS.   
    Good luck, I am not one to say what is "normal", but I felt that same way when it was finally time to send in all the stuff to the insurance company. I was sooo nervous that I would be declined even though I went through all the hoops. But for me everything went through fine.

    Mamsmith83 got a reaction from jackiesays in Gastric Bypass option off table-having sleeve   
    When I decided on the sleeve vs rny I think the difference was like 13 lbs I think sleeve people average loose 60% and bypass people usually lose about 70%. Depending how I am feeling in a few months I will probably talk to my doctor about switching to a bypass, but for me its because of reflux. I had pretty severe reflux before, but I let the doctor talk me into a sleeve, and now it is the same or worse than before so I might be one of the revision people too. I'm down almost 40lbs but my weightloss has slowed this week. I think that people who have the bypass lose faster, but from what the doc told me by 2 years everyone is about the same.
