October 2009 Surgery Date?
Shar Pei replied to Daria77's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oni..I feel the same way...I could kick myself for not just doing it now...but I have some personal travel that I want to enjoy...I am thinking of not worrying about the business end of it and trying to get it done beginning of October...I will know more after my nutric consult. I am so hooked on this site...I read the information everyday and look at those amazing before and afters...I just can't wait! I am so ready. -
I have UHC through a large employer...NOT covered! Even with several comorbidities...so you need to call them and get really good details. Call more then once...you can get different answers! Good luck! I am going to do it self pay.

October 2009 Surgery Date?
Shar Pei replied to Daria77's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi! I am planning for October too! Not sure of the date..but since I am self pay, there is no issue. Only traveling for work issues! I want to give myself at least 2 weeks after the surgery. So it may be the 27th too! I am thrilled to start this process. Did you go to the nutritional meeting yet? I go the 8/31....then to my primary for physical, EKG and Lab about 25 days before the surgery.... Good Luck! -
how private is too private?

I think I can understand your situation. I would just tell him...I would not ask for his approval..but ask for his support. He will start to notice you again when the weight comes off...maybe you won't notice him then! LOL! I am having mine done in early October..with or without his blessing! -
Any one in their 60's having/had this done?

I will be a self pay and going for my consultation next week. I am 62 and really would like to have this done as an outpatient. Do you think this will be possible? I have the normal comorbidites that go with obesity Thanks! -
