How long did the approval process take for you? Which insurance are you on? Trying to get a better idea of timeline. Now that I've committed to do this, I'm so impatient to get it done :)

I have bcbs TX and it took about 10-12 days after my doctors office submitted the request for them to generate the approval (which was last Friday). They called me today to schedule the actual procedure. It felt like forever but in all honesty the process went quickly. I first walked into my doctors office determined to have this done just 1 month ago (almost to the day).

Wow, thank you for responding, I hope mine moves along that fast :) I too have BCBS TX. I'm doing my psych eval and nutrition eval both next Tuesday. Good luck with your surgery. So exciting...

I'm using Dr Frenzel (BodEvolve) and facility is Forest Park Medical in Dallas. One of my best friends is going through Dr Nicholson. Have a cousin who had great success with Dr Holder but another cousin who had nightmare experience with Dr Cernero...poor thing is still leaking and it's been 6 weeks! Nerve racking but so excited to start this journey.

      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! 😞
