  • I'm so excited for you! Mine has been with BCBS for 10 days. Dying to get mine scheduled. Sounds like we may have similar timing!! Good luck to you!

Very happy for you! Insurance denied me and I'm waiting for my surgeon to have a Peer-to-Peer review. Keeping my fingers crossed.

skinniminiwannabe,

I was shocked when I got my approval. It Just happened so fast I didn't expect it. I'm off to surgery on Monday. 4 days to go. Since then I've been addicted to youtube and all things sleeve.

Congratulations on your approval,

Jenn

At Jenn yeah that's all I've done for the last month since I decided I wanted to do this. Pintrest, YouTube, here, on and on . I was told with my insurance it normally takes about two weeks, now if the surgery schedulers would only take that long I was hoping today was the day they would call, but no such luck! Hopefully tommorrow.

I got my approval and scheduled for June 24th. I've been driving myself crazy on Pinterest, You Tube and weight loss sites. At this rate, I'll have myself talked out of surgery before I get it.

I received my approval Friday. Now i'm waiting for the scheduler to call and set the date and any pre-op testing they want to do, if any. I cannot wait!!!

Congrats to those of you already approved!
