I am trying to do in March hoping that all goes well. I still have to see the nutritionist, nurse, and psychologist.

Do they have a corporate phone number?

I am 5'4'' and I've been overweight since I was 5. I am 30 now.

I wish I could afford to go to Mexico to do it, if I could I would already be sleeved. I am trying to go through my insurance, just waiting to get to my next appt so that I can submit my paperwork

I am looking to get down to 150 pounds which is about 122 pounds. What about you all?

That's true, just called the hospital they have appts as early as next week but they still need to put all my information in the system. Maybe if I keep calling they will do the work.

I feel like a stalker calling each day and it's a shame we have to harrass these people. When I go on my break I am going to call them.

Wow 6 to 12 months, that is just ridiculous. I am still in the same spot too I haven't called the hospital yet. I am trying to give them a chance. I will call them by the time I leave work.

Did you hear any news today?

They drag their feet. I had to do a 6 months supervised diet which took forever and now I need to meet with a nutrionist, a nurse, and a mental health person. Then I can submit all my stuff to the insurance. I am just waiting for the hospital to call me to schedule my appt so see the people.

I am playing the waiting game as well so I understand how you feel. One day we will be sleeved.

I have to do 6 months of supervised diets because my insurance requires it.

So one of the things that I had to do for my insurance to approve is to do 6 months of supervised diets. That felt like it took forever. After that I am supposed to submit the stuff to the hospital so that I can meet with a nurse, dietician, and a mental health person. These are the steps that my surgeon's office said to follow. I called the hospital because I have finally completed the 6 months diets and they say oh you could have come to see us after the 4th appt with your doctor. I am mad because I could have already met with the people and I would be submitting to insurance for approval so now I am waiting for the hospital to call me back which can be days.

Way to go

It will take me about the same because my insurance requires me to do a 6 month supervised diet.
