Does anyone know how much The surgery cost?

I am self pay

10k for me too.... 5k down and balance interest free for 2 year through hospital. (no finance company) but after 2 payments for $208 they sent me a letter and said if I could pay it off by end of month the would reduce it 50%... so in theory it cost $7292 :D

This include 3 months of fills and all Dr appointments. Now appointments are $25 and if I get a fill its $50

I'm getting so discouraged I really want this lap band surgery I'm 23 newly engaged and want children within the next five years. I have a very supportive fiancé who has been through my ups and downs and medical issues due to being so over weight ( have been my whole life) and don't think it's fair to my future husband and children to see me die from all the medical issues that come with 400+ lbs, but my sad reality is unless my insurance pays the majority I will be unable to have the surgery :( I have medical mutual anyone else?

Just call your insurance and see if they cover bariatric surgery.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
