Approved - Just waiting

[two_boysmom 20]

Hi eveyone,

I am new to this board and just received my approval for the sleeve via telephone. I now have to wait for my doctor to receive the approval letter before they schedule me for sugery. I like reading posts from others who share this journey with me. See you around on the threads!

I got that same call last friday. I was so apprehensive when i saw their name come up and then the coordinator who called wanted to say hi and how are you, etc, etc... I am thinking... Ugh..must be a denial since she is taking so long to share why she was calling. She then up and says...we have your insurance approval! I was doing the happy dance around my kitchen and saying thank you, thank you! Quite exciting day! Congratz to you and best wishes!

Thank you so much for the encouragement. I will choose a date sometime in February after my cruise.

Best of luck. This part was a hard part for me! I hated waiting, but honestly, they didn't keep me waiting that long. I had to do a 2 week liquid diet pre op too, so that kept me busy once I got my date.

I will hopefully get my approval this week. I've already completed the psych evaluation, the physical assessment, and the horrible ketosis diet. All I have to do now is wait for a date. Hopefully sooner than later I want to get this show on the road. Good luck to all

I am very excited yet very nervous I'm having my surgery in two weeks… Thought about it for three years, waiting for approval for things to work out with my insurance for about a year. I think I went overboard with the high Protein foods. My lowest weight was about 107 my highest was 270. I would love to go down to about 95. I am 4"11. Fingers crossed everybody
