It took exactly 1 week from the time my papers were submitted to insurance to get the "You're Approved!" phone call. They set up my surgery date that same day. My surgery day is Oct. 20th, with a pre-op appointment on the 14th.

You are so lucky. I have been working on this since Jan. 1st.

Walkin onsunshine---Wow, so sorry!! It took me about 7 months back in 2008 when I had my lapband, but this time it only took about 3 months to get approved for RNY.

Daronb--that's something to really look forward to! I have a wedding on Oct 4th to go to, then start my 2 week liquids the Monday after the wedding. So one more last hoorah for me at the wedding I guess. I'm not really a partier, so not much of a hoorah. :-)

Question!! So how much time does everyone plan to take off from work and what kind of work do you do?! I seem to be getting resistance becuz of the type of surg. But when I had Ivf or we are pregnant everyone is so nice to lend a helping hand but becuz this is "elective" I need to be able to carry deadweight.. FYI I work as an xray tech at a hospital.

My surgery is scheduled, for 10/31 and I'm going back 11/10. I work as an Opthalmic Tech but mostly do transcription.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
