I need some buddies. I just had my first appointment yesterday. Still really undecided on which surgery I want to do. But really leaning towards RNY. Most likely will get that one Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

Update: My insurance company called and said my policy has updated and no longer requires a 6 month supervised diet nor a psych eval. I guess that is good news! Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

I totally understand. I get to the point where I get fed up with my size. I have a interview this week at a grocery store and I so nervous because I don't know how the heck I'm supposed to stand that many hours if I get the job. I'm tired of not being able to do certian things. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

That is one of things I'm thankful for is having to see my pcp. I'd be worried they would not agree or wouldnt approve it. Good luck with everything. What month are they looking at for surgery? Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

OMG girl I think you just helped me make up my mind. Thank you all your knowledge. You made it much clearer for me. I want long-term results and I believe rny will give me that. I do need to start getting in thr habit of taking vitamins NOW. Thank you again, you're awesome!

I literally go in, get weighed, she asks if I have any questions, and then allows me to leave Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App That's what I'm thinking they'll do at mine because my caseworker said it's pointless to do the 6 months especially if they don't require me to lose any weight but that is what my insurance company is requesting I do. But I do have some questions when I first start. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

That is awesome! I'm happy for you. Definitely keep in touch and show me all that you did if you don't mind. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

Thank you all for the replies. I wish you all the best of luck. If any of you want to keep in touch go ahead and message me. You guys have put my mind at ease a bit. So I haven't had my appointment with the dietician yet, what all do they discuss? My insurance doesn't require me to loss any weight, neither does my Dr. I'm just excited for everything really. I mean who isn't lol. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

Thank you. How are things going for you? My only hesitation on rny is the malabsorption. I'm concerns about that. Other then that I'm all for rny. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App
