Hello everyone!! I just recently started my weight loss surgery journey. I actually have an appointment tomorrow with the surgeon to find out how this will all work. I've been doing a lot of research online but I find it better to see what people have to say who've actually gone through the process. I currently have a BMI of 40.3 and my insurance is through United Health Care Choice Plus in Texas. I'm curious as to how quickly they could possible approve me. I'm very nervous about this but very hopeful.
