I have BCBS and have met all requirements. How long is it taking ppl to get approved? My Doc said 48-72 hours???? If he is like the Docs I work for he has no real idea!

I also have bcbs but of Illinois. It took 17 very long days for my approval. Good luck my new life began today!

Tomorrow (11/5) is my day!! Wish I could say I aced the clear liquid diet but I've cheated...a lot! Getting super nervous. Not so much about the surgery itself but about me failing my sleeve. Donuts....cookies....candy....cake.... Some days I wouldn't eat if not for those things. I hope I can do this. See u on the other side!

11/8 is going to be here before I know. I'm so afraid that I will regret this. Mainly because of what I think society feels about having the surgery. I'm afraid I still will want to eat crappy food in 2 years from now. My mind is going crazy. I don't want to feel ashamed for having the surgery but I already feel it a little. watch the biggest loser and I feel that somehow I should be able to. I've done it twice in the past with exercise and diet but I just don't have it in me. I'm obviously going through with it but just trying to work it all out in my head still. Vent over.

I feel the same way you do Tammy. I fear the issues with my head more than stomach hunger. I am hoping that 2 years from now I can be in control naturally and not want to eat anything that isn't completely beneficial to my body.

Well completed all pre surgical testing yesterday. now for my last 2 appts thursday i need to get the surgical clearance from pcp and friday i go see my coordinator for my handbook and what not. I cant believe im just 7 days away. Friday is my last day of work.

I have moments of freaking out and then i have moments when i feel completely calm which is wierd.

good luck to everyone being sleeved today!
