The best will be to give them a call.... They will answer all of your questions about that. Every ins is diff.

This is super exciting...though I see that I have lost those 7 pounds in my neck lol. That's the only area I can see any difference in. 5 more days till I get banded!!! 76 pounds more to go! Share your weight loss...especially your pre-op weight loss.

Same here..I only lost 5 in a week.

Nope mine didn't for me, but he did to my friend and I lost 10 pounds in my 6 months req weight management by ins.

Jealous of your pre-op though!!
-
Mine was at 40 when I started and he still ha me do the 2 weeks. I think with him there is no exception! He had one patient who didn't follow the diet and her liver was big and broke...he said it was a mess. Don't know if it's true or he is just scaring people to follow their diet lol.

Everyone's body is different. Have you weighed yourself? 3 days for you!

Mine is on the 27th too, but I have to do the 15 days liquid diet!!!! I am always thinking of food..it's bad.

Time For Paperwork
prinxs replied to Destined*Lady*D's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I started in Feb 12 also, and finished my process in July. There was a problem with the Dr Office where they said they applied for the auth but never did! 2 weeks wasted on that, but a week after that my auth was approved, and I am going in for the surgery on Sept 27th. So hang in there! -
Congrats and Thank you!

I am on the opposite side ...east coast. In Palm Bay which is 3 hours away from Tampa.
-
We have the same surgery date! Where are you in Florida?

My Thyroid Level May Cause Insurance Denial
prinxs replied to NYTeacher's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have an under active thyroid, and they had me re-do the blood work 6 weeks afterwards to see if there were any changes. To this day they have to adjust my dosage. It's been 2 years since I have been on Synthroid. My insurance approved me b/c even after getting it under control I had hard time losing weight. -

It varies from Dr to Dr. Are you talking about Pre-Op or Post-Op? -
I Cheated On My Pre-Op... Now I Feel Guilty.. Help!
prinxs posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am on my 5th day and I have been doing well with my liquid diet, but I gave in the temptation and ate a chicken gyro. Not only do I feel guilty now but also makes me nervous if it will hinder with my procedure. This also made me realize how horrible of relationship I have with food. My surgery date is on 9/27 -

prinxs replied to vmarlau's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes it is very normal. It's the sense of change that makes you feel this way. -
