How is it you all got approve and right away got your surgery dates? I got approved then they made me do all the requirements like mam ekg blood work upper endoscopy and stuff. I just finished all that and now the only thing left is surgery date.. Feels like they made my process longer somehow lol =\ well anyways congrats! And I hope your transition to the loser bench is suer fantastic!

My doc had me do stress test and sleep study while waiting on insurance, then as soon as they approved, they scheduled the surgery, EKG, blood work, EGD, ultrasound of gall bladder, etc all at once (not same dates of course, but I got a bunch of dates all at once). Good luck!

I didn't. I was approved on Sept. 4th and didn't get a date until about a week after all my pre-op stuff was done on the 3rd of Oct. My surgery was scheduled for about a month and a half after that (my surgeon has a conference or something to go to which delayed it by a week or two). Each facility has its own procedures. Some give a date and get everything done in the meantime, others wait to make sure they have all the data b4 you're even scheduled.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
