February 24, 201412 yr Gotten all pre surgery stuff done!!! Now waiting for date to be set! Got all supplements, found protein shakes that I like... How are the rest of you?
February 24, 201412 yr Hi..I have done all my pre op also. I have my last weigh in April 1...I have a tentative surgery date for April 9
February 24, 201412 yr I'm in the same boat. I have all my pre-op done. The request for auth went to my insurance late last week so I'm just waiting on approval so I can schedule. I hate this limbo period of not knowing exactly when. My surgeon is shooting for the end of March. I'm hoping I get an answer soon.
February 24, 201412 yr Author I am the same! I hate waiting! I want to get this done and on the road to better health!!!!
February 24, 201412 yr I am also waiting. My stuff was submitted last week and insurance had called my surgeons office for more weight history (I hope that is not a bad thing!). I am tentatively scheduled for March 31st if approved!
February 24, 201412 yr I was fine throughout the 3 month supervised diet, but now that all the pre op is done I'm getting anxious to get it done. I'll be so bummed if it doesn't happen in March
February 24, 201412 yr Author I hear ya!!! I am hoping for the end of March but it is in God's hands!
February 25, 201412 yr I just keep telling myself to be patient. I'm noticing I'm craving junk food really bad....I guess anxiety is a trigger for me. I had been doing so well with my pre op dieting.
February 25, 201412 yr Author I am too.... Im trying to start listening to my hunger cues instead of my being bored, etc... Im going to renew my family gym membership tomorrow so I have another place to go
February 25, 201412 yr I go for my cardiac clearance ths Thursday and will hopefully schedule surgery next week for April!
February 25, 201412 yr I am so excited. I had my last doctor's visit today. As he was leaving the room his said, "ok. next time I will see you is the day of the surgery." Now all I have to do is go to my last group session next week and then they will submit papers to my insurance company. Based on when I would like to have the surgery I am 44 days away. A far cry from where I started from the very first day that I called and made the first appointment. Which was in August 2013. This is my first post. Is there a spell check on here?
March 1, 201412 yr My papers were submitted to my insurance on the 12th. I hate the waiting. I want to know and get started already!
March 1, 201412 yr Just got my date April 15th!!!! After six months of testing and weigh ins, my insurance required six months, THEY are paying so I am happy!!!! I wish you all good luck!!!!
