Waiting on insurance approval....................



Recommended Posts

Let me clarify. In the beginning, it was very disappointing to know that I had to do a 6 mo supervised diet. I was ready at that moment for surgery to solve all of my problems. On my first visit to my doctor, I told her that I did not want to waist my time. I wanted to be serious about losing weight and make good use of this time. That is what I did. I learned a lot about myself. I got applause from my pcp and nutritionist about the changes that I have already made in my diet. Sooooo, hindsight sees more clearly. I am glad I went through the 6 months. I can definitely say that I have gotten wiser!

Yes, I agree, the time has been well spent. I've done a lot more homework about the sleeve and the changes that I need to make than I would have if I would've been approved right away. I'm just soooo ready now to have the surgery that I'll be really disappointed if they deny. Good luck to you with both of your surgeries!rolleyes.gif

At least you know your insurance will cover it. Mine took it out of the contract...

I got a call from my doctor's office today telling me I'm approved!!! Woohoo! They just submitted it last Friday. I didn't expect it to happen that fast. So I have my date which is September 12th. Can't wait to join all the losers!

I'm waiting too! Mine was just submitted Friday, but I think I'm going to call the insurance company tomorrow to check status. Too anxious!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
