I finished my supervised diet and paperwork was submitted on 3/6. They told me it would be 2-15 business days, which seems like forever! Hopefully I will get an answer soon :).

Who's your insurance carrier? I was told it could take as long as 30 days to hear back from my insurance company (Anthem BCBS). :(

I have BCBS TX and it took one week. Everything was submitted on Valentines Day and I was approved on the 21st of Feb. My surgery is March 20th. Just be patient and pray.. (Be patient coming from the person that called the insurance company EVERYDAY) [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji53][emoji53][emoji17][emoji17][emoji17]

LOL! I know! My paperwork was submitted last Friday and I've called Monday and Wednesday. It has taken everything within me NOT to call today! Ha!

Congrats to you, ThickGirl5683! Your surgery date will be here before you know it!

Aetna. The insurance coordinator said average is 2 weeks. Im hoping in on the low end of that average

Mine was submitted 2/28 and I was approved on 3/2. I have Anthem BCBS. I was told with my specific employer plan, it would take 5 business days to get a decision.

      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! 😞
