Had my pre-op yesterday and paperwork is submitted to insurance company !!! Now the waiting game begins....so anxious ! I start liquid diet on Monday but am trying a few shakes etc now to see how it will go. My BMI was 35.6 when I started this process and my insurance needs 2 co-morbids to qualify. My surgeon seems to think it should be ok and the insurance will accept my high cholesterol and mild sleep apnea as qualifiers but I am still anxious. Anyone else have BLUECROSS/BLUESHIELD ILL ? and experience the same ? and what is turnaround time on approval??

Ventura Co. Is SO beautiful!!! I start 2 weeks if pre-op diet on Oct. 28. How strange that I am giving up Halloween this year! What's really cool is that I am SO jazzed for this opportunity that I don't even care that I have to trade Halloween for this opportunity. I am SO doggone ready for this you just don't know!

      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! 😞
