So Excited, Approved and Date set - March 7th



Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I am so excited I can hardly breath. My surgery was previously set for April 16th. Today I was informed I have been approved by insurance and date bumped up to March 7th. I start the liquid diet in six days. I am just beside myself. I seriously didn't expect to be approved. Don't ask me why...guess it is just my luck, but today when I got the call, I started crying. I have wanted this for so long and I did everything I was told.

I would love it if there are any other March 7th sleevers that would like a support companion as we go through this journey together.

Good luck to us all.

Major hugs of excitement.

Kriss

I know the excitement that you are feeling. I called my insurance yesterday evening and was told that I was approved. But, this morning, I had to call back and just make sure. Lol.....I started my preop diet before I was approved because my surgeon had an earlier opening. My surgery will be this next Thursday, the 21st. I am really anxious. Good luck to you and congratulations!!

Well thank you very much! I will be sure to post how it all went. It just kind of seems unreal right now. I had planned to go to Mexico if my insurance didn't approve it. I really feel a sense of relief knowing I get to stay here close to home. Where are you located krissj?

Congrats!! That is great! I am going to MX and having mine 3/7!! I decided not to fight with the insurance company and try a peer to peer.

      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! 😞
