I was never a big drinker but decided post surgery I'd never consume alcohol again. Just my choice. Sent from my moto e5 (XT1920DL) using BariatricPal mobile app

How long did it take you to get your surgeries?

15-20 lbs is considered average. Your right on target. Sent from my moto e5 (XT1920DL) using BariatricPal mobile app -

Is This Sleep Apnea?
lifeasfaith replied to Boldilocks's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It would be impossible for lay persons (even Doctors) on here to diagnose to you on a forum. A sleep study would give you the answers you need. Sent from my moto e5 (XT1920DL) using BariatricPal mobile app -
That would be a question for Dr. They all have different criteria. Sent from my moto e5 (XT1920DL) using BariatricPal mobile app

Wow! Considering that obesity is classified as a disease it's almost appalling they would make you go through that to save your life. It's almost like they're saying "prove to us your life is worth saving" Sent from my moto e5 (XT1920DL) using BariatricPal mobile app -

My first Dr appt was Jan 17 th I haven't had surgery yet but my insurance dies NOT require supervised weigh ins so it's looking like my surgery will be late March early April. Everything will be submitted to insurance for approval on March 7th and as soon as we get approval (my insurance is pretty quick) I'll pick a surgery date and begin my pre-op diet. I have United healthcare Medicare advantage plan. Sent from my moto e5 (XT1920DL) using BariatricPal mobile app -
Anthem Healthkeepers Blue Cross Blue Shield experiences?
lifeasfaith replied to Reducingraven's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It would be best to call them directly. Medicaid covers bariatric surgery only in some states. Sent from my moto e5 (XT1920DL) using BariatricPal mobile app -
Congrats! I'm 53 and rolling right along through the process! Looking at a late March early April Surgery. Well wishes! Sent from my moto e5 (XT1920DL) using BariatricPal mobile app

Menopause
lifeasfaith replied to Naughty Glitter Goddess's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I was thrown into instant medical menopause with the removal of my one remaining ovary (twisted and removed in an emergency surgery and my other was removed ten years earlier under the same circumstances). I have never had a single menopausal symptom and it's been over 3 years now. Sent from my moto e5 (XT1920DL) using BariatricPal mobile app
