Waiting on approval, fingers crossed!

I spoke to United this morning and they have received everything from my surgeons office yesterday. I am lucky to have a plan that did not require the 6mo nutritionist/medical diet. I got a little delayed because I was laid off in the middle of the process and had to wait for Cobra to kick in but everything seems to be going in right direction. I hope they approve me soon so I can have a May date since I am holding off on finding a new job. Otherwise I have a short window of time to get on another insurance plan at my second job, but they use Aetna and I would have to start the 6 month medical supervised diet. The timing is so right for this surgery to happen now that I am between jobs....I just don't want to be delayed, grrrrr.....

Good thoughts, candles lit and fingers crossed for Unitied to approve!

      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! 😞
