Hey Miranda, congrats on your surgery date. Well I'm trying to have the surgery I've been denied with my insurance company. So the insurance company have me doing the 3 consecutive appts with a weight loss doctor, nutrional & psychological consult along with a medical clearance. I kinda got a little discouraged but I'm going through with everything. Just trying to find out if you had to go through the same situation. How long did it take b4 you finally got your surgery date
