I spoke to United this morning and they have received everything from my surgeons office yesterday. I am lucky to have a plan that did not require the 6mo nutritionist/medical diet. I got a little delayed because I was laid off in the middle of the process and had to wait for Cobra to kick in but everything seems to be going in right direction. I hope they approve me soon so I can have a May date since I am holding off on finding a new job. Otherwise I have a short window of time to get on another insurance plan at my second job, but they use Aetna and I would have to start the 6 month medical supervised diet. The timing is so right for this surgery to happen now that I am between jobs....I just don't want to be delayed, grrrrr.....

Good thoughts, candles lit and fingers crossed for Unitied to approve!

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
