Hey guys, I'm waiting on my approval from the insurance! They submitted everything to UHC on 6/28. I called today and they said they had received every thing and it was in a pending status. It has to go through a medical review team and then a medical director for approval! I'm so anxious to get this approved and to get a date! Please keep me in your thoughts! I'm so ready to start the journey and be on the loser's bench with everyone! Hugs to every one on this journey! :)

Hey ladyhouston, I think my username is a little misleading. I'm not in Houston. I used my husbands middle name to sign up. :). I am however a previous New Orleanian! I always feel that people from New Orleans and Houston have a lot in common! Sleeveme, looks like we will be waiting buddies together! I hope we hear something this week. I agree the waiting is Miserable! Ladyhouston, keep us informed about your surgery date. Hopefully, we'll all be sleeved very soon!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
