I'm Approved - Uhc



Recommended Posts

Hey Folks,

I got my approval letter in the mail yesterday :banana :banana :banana

I cant believe it I'm on my way!!! Now all I have to do is calm down and wait for the doctors office to open so I can ask him what's next.

You all have been so supportive and I tell you I needed that since I've been waiting since Oct. Thank you, thank you , thank you.

Thanks Betty and Marie,

now all I have to do is get that surgery date. I cant wait. Then I'll be bugging you all to help me thru that liquid/soft food stage. Oh well, how does that saying go -- Rome wasnt built overnite.

Tanya,

Congrats! Is your insurance paying for you surgery? Are you going to the Molding Clinic? Sorry to ask so many quesitons, just curious. I am very interested in the procedure. I am just trying to find out if they take insurance. I have UHC.

UHC is going to pay for the surger. I am not going to the Molding Clinic, I dont even know what that is. UHC did take a long time for approval. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Tanya,

how long did UHC take to approve? I called them yesterday, they told me it could take up to 30 days. I am trying to find a doctor in my area, that will accept me. Wish me luck!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
