I will be 7 months post-op in just a few days! Loving my sleeve. First pic was 2/14/16 before surgery, other was today. Sleeved 3/30/16

i get that a lot lately!

LOL I'm not sure how to do that, but I've lost 94 lbs and a ton of inches

I work out with a trainer 3 days a week, I do a ab class 2 days a week and I also do a bootcamp class 4 days a week.

i feel amazing! you will do great! Best decision I've made for myself.

I feel great! I'm down 27 lbs since my preop appt, so that is a plus [emoji4]

It's been a week since I got the call that everything was being scanned to be sent to insurance, but my insurance hasn't gotten anything yet. I started this journey in June of last year, I'm just so impatient and ready to start my new journey!

Surgery finally happened and I'm 6 days post-op today [emoji4]

And the wait is on!!!! Paperwork has been submitted to insurance. Anyone have this insurance and know how long it typically takes for approval?

Surgery went well I'm 6 days post-op today!

March 30 is the day!!!

I got my date today!! March 30

I called insurance today and I was APPROVED!

My "Dummy Date" is 4/19, but as soon as my surgery coordinator gets the approval letter she will set up a real date.

I was never denied, after 3 weeks of waiting and calling and then telling me they didn't have my paperwork it had to be resubmitted bc they told my surgery coordinator to do it one way and then after the fact they said that wasn't the right way! So they resubmitted last Thursday, Friday it was already being reviewed, Monday my surgery coordinator had to send clinicals and today I called and it was approved.

Ok after after waiting 3 wks and then having my paperwork resubmitted a week ago, I'M APPROVED!!!!!!

All my paperwork had to be resubmitted today, my insurance has issues apparently.

All of my paperwork had to be resubmitted, bc my surgery coordinator was told one thing and then was told protocol was changed . I had a similar incident trying to get my cpap machine. So I knew something was not right, now to wait some more.

Ugh!!! How annoying!! Very similar situations were going through! Hope this nightmare ends soon for both of us!! I'm so tired of waiting!It's not the waiting that's bothering me it's the fact I can't get a straight answer as to what is going on with my paperwork, I just want to hear they have my paperwork.

Sorry can't help you, they are still saying they haven't received anything for me from my surgery coordinator. My surgery coordinator told me today she called them and she is still waiting on a return call, just sounds strange to me!

Guys are you tired of my whining yet? So the latest I called insurance again today and they still aren't showing my paperwork on their end. I emailed my surgery coordinator again today bc I hadn't heard from her since she said she would call them yesterday, I asked her if she had heard anything about what is going on and she said she was still waiting for my insurance to return her call. OMG what is going on!!!! Where the heck is my paperwork we are working on week 3 and I have absolutely no clue what is going on ????

Well after 4 emails to my surgery coordinator, she finally replied and said it could take up to 30-60 days before we heard anything, my response was that I understood that, but insurance is still saying they haven't received my paperwork for approval and it's been 2 wks! She then replied she would call them today and let me know what they say...guess who didn't hear from her ????

I have Empire BCBS.

Awesome! Hoping when I call tomorrow they at least say they have my paperwork ????

Still nothing for me emailed the coordinator Monday, and she has yet to reply, which makes me that more frustrated!Call your insurance company find out the status from them. Sometimes the call to insurance company pushes them to review your documents and decide.Calling them back tomorrow for the 3rd time.
