Texas___Sleeved reacted to med28thmed in Anyone else not losing?The doctor explained that I would lose weight like the "stairs", instead of the "slide". It's not going to be smooth sailing all the way down. Our body will lose the weight but we must give it chance to regroup and refit our skins.
My surgery was in Feb 2019. My slowest progress so far was on my 3rd month (May). Once June came around, my progress increased again.
Good job exercising everyday.
Congratulations on losing 55 lbs. I recently lifted a 10 pound potato sack and it was "HEAVY"... So 55 is a lot! Awesome job!
Hang in there friend. We'll be skinny someday....soooon!

Texas___Sleeved reacted to DanaC84 in BCBS ILI hope you get news quickly!! Mine was over the Christmas holidays so I expected it to take much longer than it actually did. Then I was ready to schedule surgery the next day lol! Had to wait about 3 weeks but it flew by -
Texas___Sleeved got a reaction from DanaC84 in BCBS ILSo far, my insurance has only required 3 things:
- Past attempts at weight loss (which I gave them weight watchers history, and prescriptions for adipex)
- Psych evaluation (which I did online)
- Meeting with nutritionist (I did in office yesterday)
My doctor's office called today and let me know that once the insurance worker is back in the office tomorrow, she will be submitting to insurance!! Of course they gave me the "It usually takes around two weeks to hear back", but I have seen as little as 3 to 4 business days, so I am hoping for the best!
Hoping I will be able to start my journey soon!
