    Walden Farms does not taste good at all to me. Threw out the entire bottle.

    Congratulations! What insurance do you have and how long did they take to approve you? My ppk was sent out last Monday. Thanks!

    Right around the corner!! Congrats! I am waiting for insurance approval. I have United Health and they said they are around 3 weeks. It has only been 4 days! Patience, patience for me. =(

    My doctor does not put you on a liquid only diet. She just requires you to lose 10% of your excess weight before surgery. I had 6 months to do it which was only 14 pounds. I am so "happy" she does not recommend the liquid diet pre op.

    RNY or the Sleeve

    SherB replied to taterbum's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums

    I am getting the sleeve. I decided I wanted to leave my intestines alone so I didn't want the reroute. I also felt it was safer and less issues. Just my opinion.

    You look fantastic! Any suggestions and/or tips for those of us waiting for our surgery date?

    Right, I am sure the insurance company is a "peer" of your surgeons. LOL Hoops, hoops and more hoops. You would think your bmi might be enough? They just sent in my paperwork yesterday. I have United Health but you never know if they will have hoops of their own. Again..I hope for the best for you and that you get an "APPROVED" very soon!

    Hello, What is a peer to peer? What insurance company do you have? I hope it all works out for you.

    Must be common. My surgeon removes the gall bladder if you still have it on all of her patients. Mine is already removed.

    Shakes and Insurance

    SherB replied to yolicious1's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I have UHC, how do you submit to get them covered? Is this pre or post op? Thanks for any info you can give me.
  11. SherB
    Yeah!! Congrats!

    Just follow your plan and exercise before your next visit. Trust me, they know people are going to mess up. If we were so "good" at following diets would we be where we are now? Just be honest and move forward. Best of luck.

    SherB replied to NothingUpMySleeve's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery

    My friend just scheduled the tuck and the boobs and it is going to be $17k for her.

    I wish I could get my surgery date before insurance approval. I am keeping my fingers crossed for you. Best of luck!

    Congratulations on your weight loss. I too lost my father this last year. My deepest sympathies to you for the loss of your father. I am in my 6th month of my supervised diet. I am scared to have the surgery. It is stories like yours that give me hope. Best of luck on your journey!

    I am approved

    SherB replied to abrooke1976's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums

    Wow, that is super quick. Congratulations! I am in the last month of my 6 month doctor supervised program. I am getting excited. My ppk gets sent in on 5/2/14 to insurance. Keeping my fingers crossed. Hope time flies for you!
