Hi everyone I just started my journey. I’m scheduled for cardio eval 4/11 and my first nutrition class . Looking at Sept 18 pre op for sleeve.

Welcome welcome. We hope you'll hang around and get to know us better. There are people at all levels of the weight loss journey, newbies like yourself, pre surg like me who have or are in the process of finishing up requirements, ones whose surgery dates are shortly coming up, people who have just had their surgeries and are in the process of recovering and many seasoned veterans who are still active. We[emoji173] them especially as they mentor the rest of us. We treasure their advice for they have walked the walk ahead of us. Ask any questions you like,if I don't have an answer somebody else on Bariatric Pal will. We all may be having different approaches and viewpoints but we are unified in wishing you well and hope we can ease things for you. Welcome again, we think you'll find yourself at home here.

Welcome, and congrats on taking the first step to a better healthier and happier you!

I’m in the early stages myself.. had my first support group last week and my psychiatric evaluation is this coming Tuesday. Found out last Friday I have hiatal hernia (idk how that’ll affect insurance) but staying positive!

Mila it could actually work,in your favor. I have known of cases where insurance (confound their devious devilish souls) started to pull a balk at covering weight loss surgery, it got billed as hernia repair and the sleeve or bypass got slipped in under the radar. Sometimes you have to fight them at their own game. I shared on another thread how I had 2 procedures done, my ENT surgeon only billed for the one UHC would cover, the,other in some circles, especially insurance ones, could have been considered cosmetic although there was an underlying risk to my health. There was a small chance I could go septic without it.
