They tested my nicotine levels too...I smoke an e-cig too but switched to zero nicotine nobacco juice... Volanco sells different strengths...I started at 24mg, then 11mg, and so on, now it's zero and just vapor that taste like chocolate.. -
How long did the process take you?
Lindarella posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi All, I've jumped thru all the hoops and I'm now in the "waiting for approval stage". I was just wondering how long the process took you.. They told me so far I flew through all the requirements but it does not seem that way...I started beginning of November...So, now I'm wondering how long it takes everyone else. My biggest hurdle would have been a supervised weight loss program but luckily I have been going to "Medical Weight loss Center" for the last 2 years. Some of it seems so unnecessary and time consuming. I understand they don't want people making rash decisions and regretting it later but still it's a pain...I even had to write a letter to the surgeon and explain why I wanted the surgery... Really? I thought it was pretty obvious... Anyway, how long did take you? Thanks for listening..
