My surgery is set for the 23rd. I do not plan on keeping it a secret. I am super honest about everything but that does not mean I am going to volunteer all kinds of information. I have really thought about this concerning my coworkers. We will see how my plan goes.
My surgery is scheduled for the 23rd also! I keep going from nervous to excited and back to nervous. Had my pre-op at the hospital today and I am super excited!
I just kept saying my goal was healthy and I still feel that way 5 days from surgery.... BUT my doctor said he thought if I worked hard I could lose 75 pounds so I've decided that is my goal.
I have spent a lot of time and money to get to a surgery date and I am going to lose all I can lose.
Good luck finding your number!
I have Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.
My first surgeon appointment was 11/14/19 and my surgery is scheduled for 1/23/19. Insurance requires 6 months medically supervised weight loss. I had been seeing my primary doctor about my weight for over a year and the insurance accepted 4 months from my primary Dr (internal medicine doctor) and 2 months with a nutritionist.
