Fingers crossed you get an approval ASAP!

You can do this! I had surgery on 12/10/16, it's definitely life changing, but for the better. I know what it's like to bottle emotions and feel alone and uncomfortable. Hopefully this will give you a new lease on life, you're stronger than you think! Good luck!

I don't have Aetna, I have BCBS NJ...but I yo-yoed like that the whole six months and then the last month appointment I gained like 9 pounds. I was approved first time in like 3 days. Good luck to you!!

I had my rny on Saturday December 10th. I came home yesterday. Thankfully my surgery went very well, so grateful for that. However--for anyone who says this is the "easy way out" can for lack of a better saying "kiss my butt"! Haha. It's pretty painful, and the amount of gas that you have to get out from being filled with it is extreme. Everyday the pain does ease up though. I'm trying to get all my liquids in because I'm not hungry at all. Lots of rest and lots of support around you will get you through. Thoughts and prayers for everyone who has their procedure coming up. Xoxo.

@@hectorlopez323 You are strong! I've made it to day 3! I've stayed on only liquids as my doc requested, today seems a little easier. I'm not as hungry and so far no headache. However...i have to say, if i wasn't almost forced to be on all liquids like this, i would likely be with your wife and not make it half a day. Hahahha.
@@Joules007 Yes, it's so exciting and so nerve wracking!! Good luck to you, we got this!
-
@@hectorlopez323 LOL! I watched that! I also watched the 2nd one. It sooo makes you want to juice, but clearly i'm not made for that. How did the 30 days go?
-
Thank you all for responding! This all liquid is seriously horrible butttt yes, it'll be okay. Gotta stay strong. Like really strong, because this is rough. Hahaha. pizza sounds soooo good.
