Recommended Posts

Whew! Finally approved!

My last NUT visit was 4/6. Submitted to insurance the next day. 4/11 get a letter asking for more info, basic stuff that I thought would have already been submitted like surgery date, hospital info, etc. Resubmitted by 4/15, got approval via automated system on 4/22 and finally got the call from the surgeons office today. I am scheduled for May 16th!! Yay! Let's get this party started!

I have Cigna. I had heard they approve quickly so I was a nervous wreck when it took so long to hear back from them.

      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! 😞
