Met with the surgeon today. Really liked her and like that she’s a female. My insurance requires 6 months of weigh ins and I was able to count last months. So 1 down, 1 next week and then 4 more months. I got blood work labs to do, they signed me up everything I needed and suddenly I see a direct path to surgery! Hoping for a smooth process! My BMI is 41.5 and Doctor said to just maintain my current weight so I won’t disqualify myself. 41.5 BMI & high blood pressure (taking medication) is what I’m trying to qualify with. She said I was a very easy and straightforward case so we’re going for the sleeve. Taking this easy path with gratitude because I know it’s not this easy for others. ❤️

Congrats, you can do it! Dont be surprised if mental food stress or surgery issues do crop up though, just don't let it get to your head and let you gain because you don't need to "lose". Insurances don't like that either.
