Hi, surgery date Sept.25.

Mine is Sept 3rd

Thats coming up very soon. I bet u both are very excited. How much are u wanting/needing to lose? Have u had alot.of insurance requirements as well or self pay?

My surgery date is Sept 10th. I have done Medifast at least 3 times in the past 5 years.

I hope the time flies - it is all I think about!

How was medifast for u?

Self pay going to Mexico

Ive been hearing that mecico is actually not a bad place to have.surgery like all the stereotypes. I hope it works out for you. Hope this im not prying how much is ur self pay in mexico. The self pay option here (if my insurance denies me) i think is 12,500 with 150$/ month payments.

September 7 for me!

I've heard it's like 4k or something. Anyways, I'm in the process of a 3 month supervised diet. I'm 5' 5", 37, started at 288lbs, currently ast 268lbs. My goal is 150 ish.

I had the seminar in March. 3 Nut visits, a psych visit, 1 visit with doc this month. I had pre-auth approval in June after Nut visit. Dr. Is always booked. I have BCBS fed. On my surgery date I will be the only surgery for that day.

I would like to lose about 80 pds. I'm 4'11.5, 222 pds.

AllSmiles, I am excited. I have thought about the wls surgery for years but have changed my mind and I'm glad I did because the sleeve is covered by ins.

My surgery is Sept. 17th.

Congrats!!

I haven't got a date yet, but my doctor estimates mid to late September. Can't wait!
