I’m getting sleeved on 2/17!!! I start my liquid diet on 2/7. This whole time I was so worried about gaining weight and my insurance would deny me. I told my surgeon that today and he told me my insurance doesn’t require that I not gain weight. But luckily I still weighed in at the same amount I was during my consult in June 2021. I’m getting my procedure done at VHC in Virginia and I have Aetna better health (Medicaid).

I just got the call today that I’ve finished everything!!! My pre-op with my surgeon is next Wednesday and my pre-op with my pcp is the 28th!!! They said my surgery should be scheduled within 30 days of my pre-op w/ my surgeon. Fingers crossed for a February surgery date!!!!

Same here!!! 9:50 arrival and 11:50 start time.

I am also on 2/17!! We got this!

Insurance approved my surgery!! Submitted on 1/28 and approved on 2/1. Pre-op diet starts 2/7 and surgery on 2/17!!!

If you’re worried about weighing enough to qualify, wear a pair of ankle weights. I wore a 5 lb pair to my initial consultation because I was barely at a 40 BMI and wanted to make sure my insurance would cover it.
