Recommended Posts

My surgeon office didn't fax all paperwork needed within 2week time frame and I got denied on Sept 4. I didn't cry...I wanted to because I have been seeing doctor since Nov! I even had to switch surgeons! So I am exhausted and want surgery by now. I just joined and started to write on forum about my frustration being denied and while I was typing my surgeons office called and said I was approved!! I'm ecstatic! But my appointment to get my date is not until October 4th! I'm going to start my liquid diet Monday and hopefully he will give me a sooner date!! I pray!!

Hang in there. The whole pre-op part is so difficult! All of it! Before you know it, you'll be being wheeled into the operating room!

October 4 is only 2 weeks away! You are right on schedule, since the liquid diet is suppose to be for 2 weeks pre-op... I am scheduled for October 1...my goal was to be scheduled by the end of September...so I am happy :) ... good luck to you!

Good luck to you as well!! I won't find out my surgery date until the 4th but hopefully if I am already on pre op he will not make me wait two more weeks... Wishful thinking!!

Congratulations! The waiting game is always so difficult. Your Re-birth Day will be here before you know it. I've been waiting since 1-1/2 yrs ago for Medicare to come through. I'll be recovering from a total knee replacement while you melt away. Take care Anders us know how you're coming along!

Thank you soo much! I was worried because I have UHC NJ Medicaid I thought it would be a tedious process getting insurance approval but thank God it really wasn't that bad!! But hang in there and keep appealing! Good Luck!

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
