Congrats!!! This is random, but do you (or anyone else who sees this) obsess over the surgery? Wondering if it will be approved, worried that something will change, etc.? If so, how do you manage it?! I literally have a hard time sleeping now bc it's always on my mind! ALWAYS!

Hi!!
Congrats! I’m really hoping I get a date around that timeframe! I just started the process December 31st, but my insurance has no waiting period. I’ll finish with all necessary appointments March 9th & will be submitted that day. I’m so nervous! I literally sit and wonder “can this really happen for me?”. I’m excited for you! I think it’s cool how they already gave you a date prior to the insurance approval! What hospital & where are you from? I’m in Wisconsin & am going to Froedtert ❤️

That's BOMB. The place I'm going is a learning hospital, nothing special. My mom went there when she had the rny so I know they're good.

That's interesting, I just never heard of it. But anyway, the BEST of luck!

Literally crawls! lol Even though I literally just had my first consult 12/31/19...it seems like my other appointments are taking foreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeever to come!

I feel the same way!!!! My insurance doesn't require a waiting period either and I'm toooo excited! I'm kinda disappointed that the soonest psych appointment is March 3rd, so my paperwork will have to wait to be submitted til then..but I'm excited and I hope it all goes well! Good luck to you!!!!

Tomorrow is my appointment and I cannot stop reading over my insurance documents, reading over documents from the doctors office and everything else. Someone get me to calm down lol

This is true! lol Thank you so much, I guess I just always need opinions. This whole journey has me tooooooo excited. I've got everything scheduled outside my endoscopy. I'm hoping I get approved in March & have an April date so I can be sexayyyy for graduation lol

Lol! My mom did that! She said she even sat down & they “clinked” together 😩 the horror lol

Some people ? lol... I did suggest ankle weights to someone here once.

Hi everyone!
I see the doctor Tuesday the 31st and am SUPER nervous. Right now, I’m definitely 100+ lbs overweight but my BMI still is around 38. I’m just really worried it won’t work out for me! So far I have no comorbidities (I think). So! Is 100+ lbs over okay even thought my BMI is approx 38? Thanks!

I will be starting the process for Weight-Loss Surgery!!!! I get my email for orientation for the classes I will be taking at Kaiser Permanente by email.
