15 so far in the last couple weeks surgery should be the 28th. Hoping for another eight which puts me right at 35bmi. I want to start as low as possible I'm a slow loser.

You'll do great! Just keep up the good work, it is really worth it! Praying for you!

Big congrats! I'm hoping for the same early Christmas present hopefully this week! So happy for you!

Congrats and wishing you a speedy recovery.

Get up off the ground gracefully. Was at a parade today sitting on the curb and realized I can't get up easily anymore.

Does anybody know if they deal with these on the weekend at all?

Thanks. I'm calling today and hope to have an answer by Wed.

Best of luck on your journey. God Bless

That's awesome!!! You are inspiring me now! Congrats!

So sorry. I'm waiting on Anthem too. I've been very worried about a denial as well. How long did it take? I hope you can appeal.

That's amazing! Good for you!

Huge congrats! How many days did it take? I'm praying for an answer next week and hopefully also scheduled that same week as you.

I'm in nc too and waiting on approval with CA bcbs athem. Where are you having surgery? I didn't have the sixth month swl either but and wondering if we have all the facts. Every time I call I seem to get misinformation. It's frustrating.

Hi I'm new to the board too. My papers were submitted this past Wed. I am overly anxious waiting for a response and incredibly fearful of rejection. I am obsessed with thinking about this surgery and it is actually all I think about. I started the full liquid diet at the end of November to get a head start and to be ready as soon as the approval comes through. The wait seems unbearable at times and I'm so sick of thinking about this 24/7 and I don't want to drive my poor husband crazy, but it's a huge decision. Praying everybody waiting gets a quick approval and has an easy surgery. This too shall pass. I'm very thankful for all the amazing info and support here. I think I've read every word. So inspired by you all and it feels nice to hear people speak about everything I feel. Very comforting in my very skinny world around me who don't have a clue how it feels.
