Got my surgery date: March 4th!!! After much lurking and wishing, I am ready to join in the losing!!! 2 weeks! On the liquid bandwagon today!!!

Congrats! I hope I get mine soon!

Good luck to you! How far into the process are you?

Paperwork was submitted to insurance on the 13th. They are saying it takes 15 days to get an answer. Just hoping they get it soon because I got an email yesterday that said my company is making changes to our medical plan that affect bariatric surgery and the changes take place on April 1. It's not an exclusion. But the change could make the surgery more expensive. So hoping to get the surgery done before April 1. Fingers crossed.

My insurance also said 14 business days for a reply, but I got a reply in 24 hours. My Nut said its a really slow time of year, so responses are typically faster right now. Fingers crossed that it will be fast for you as well!!!????

Congrats!! I go next Tuesday, had to get mine in before ins changes on march 1st.

Good luck to you!!! I will look for your post sleeve posts!

24 hour response?! Wow! They told me to call back next week so I'm attempting to not be impatient. But it's really hard!!

best of luck to you .. this phase is tough but oh so worth it !

I go 3/3!! This liquid diet is killing me. I have no energy. I spent 5 hours at the hospital doing pre op testing today, so glad that's over.

Congrates. Stick to it, it helps firm and shrink your liver.

I just wanted to update you since you had asked, but I called insurance today and I have been approved!! I was actually approved on the 18th! Eeeek!

Wow, you were quick, too! Congrats!!!!! When will you know your surgery date?

I'm going to call my doc office on Monday and find out when I can meet with my surgeon to set a date.

Looks like I am right there with you! My surgery is March 2!! I start the pre op diet tomorrow and I will admit I am a bit freaked out!!!
