My surgeon wants me to lose 16-20 lbs by 3/21, and I will be starting my full liquid diet tomorrow. Will I be able to get it off in time? I have a weigh in on Thursday 3/10, one on 3/16 and my final weigh in with the surgeon on 3/18 I'm just scared I won't be able to lose enough in time

I have a surgeon fee of $4500 that I need to pay the surgeon within the next few days (2 weeks before surgery) and a $1011 co-pay for the hospital but that covers my one night in the hospital also. It is expensive but will be so worth it in the end!

Oops! I was talking to my friend earlier who is banded but no, I am getting sleeved! I meant to put sleeved instead!

I was approved for surgery by United Healthcare and scheduled for surgery on 3/21! I go tomorrow to sign the paperwork for the hospital! Only 18 more days until I am officially sleeved and my whole life will change!

My surgery coordinator submitted my information to UHC for approval last Thursday, she said she will call them on Thursday to find out what they have to say. I am so excited/nervous! I really really hope that UHC approves me!

I'd love this. My e-mail is babygi6003@hotmail.com Thank you!

Okay, well I know that I requested one from him after seeing my coordinator. I guess I'll wait a couple more days and then e-mail her to find out how the process is going.

Hi everyone I had my psych evaluation today and talked to the dietitian on 2/14. My psych eval went amazing, she said that I was the ideal candidate for the gastric sleeve and that her report would be on my coordinators desk in the morning. Is there anything else that I'm missing before my coordinator can turn in my request to insurance? I know my coordinator is gathering my 5 year weight history from my previous doctors right now.
