Hi Everyone!!! I have been stalking this group for months but made the decision to become a healthier me on October 8. I had my first visit with surgeon on October 15. I also completed all my pre required testing by October 26. Got a call from my surgeons office today and they sent my paperwork into insurance company which is UHC. So nervous ????????????but excited ????????hopefully I can get a date of December if I am approved. No I am going to say when I am APPROVED! !! So if anyone can help with my nerves I will appreciate it. And of course I have many questions going through my head but I won't burdened yall with that lol. Look forward to talking with my new friends on this journey ☺

Welcome! I had my surgery on Monday and I'm home now. This is a great forum and people have been very open and informative here. So ask away!

Welcome! Congrats on the decision to get healthy.

Which surgery are you having?

Hello and welcome! Congrats on making the weight loss surgery decision. Things might seem a tad overwhelming now but before you know it, your day will be here too.

I'm three months out from my RNY and I couldn't be happier! Best of luck!

Thanks everyone I really feel like I have support and I can make it. I am having RNY

I'm so envious that your process is so fast! Good luck and I am excited to read about your approval!

Welcome! Feel free to ask whatever questions you want. It's no burden. I hope you get a quick approval!

Thanks again yall I was just notified that once Optum approve me then the send it to UHC then they have 1 to 3 days to medically review it by a doctor. So hopefully I will hear by Tuesday. But I will aggravate them until then lol
