New here and just finished pre op requirements

Hello all, I have been reading different post over the last week before I decided to join. Glad I did ? I have finished my last nutrition visit yesterday my insurance company required 6 months. A little disappointed I only lost a couple of pounds so I hope and pray my insurance company approves it. Unfortunately I believe my body has decided to pick this time to start peri-menopause which they say may be why I am not losing despite making all the changes that I have made. I just hope it is enough to get approved. So now I just wait I guess to here if it was approved hopefully not to long for an answer.

Hi, I'm new here also! So much helpful content and it's very encouraging to see others who are healthy and happy with their decision. It feels overwhelming at times.

I just completed my tests and pre-op appointment, then a few more hurdles and I should be good to go. I can't wait.

I hope your approval comes through successfully!

Welcome to you both. Oh yeah. Peri menopause & then menopause is the worst. It’s when I put on 30kg (15 more than I ‘d ever done before) & couldn’t shift a gram of it.

Was so glad I found this forum before my surgery. There are lots of people willing to help, offer suggestions, hold your virtual hand or celebrate with you here.

Hope all goes well with your approvals.

My last nutrition visit will be the end of January and praying I can get my Dr appointment and surgery scheduled by March. Praying and ???????? Good luck everyone

Good luck to all that are waiting for approvals. I was told it could take 7-15days for a response from the insurance company. I rush an open every email that comes in phone lol even though they just sent me the message Friday evening telling how long it can be and it’s only Tuesday ?. Very nervous not about the surgery but about the approval ready to get the 2 weeks of liquid deliciousness over ??
