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 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! 😞
