cantweight14 3 Posted January 3, 2015 Me too. When? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dohickey01 8 Posted January 20, 2015 Is the process long? I go to see Dr. Foreman, speak with the nutritionist and and the insurance coordinator next month. My insurance pays for the procedure so that's not an issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cantweight14 3 Posted January 20, 2015 My ins paid but it still took about 4 months. I had to see the nut. And my pcp for 3 months. Also had to have other tests before i got my approval from the ins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dohickey01 8 Posted January 20, 2015 I hope the psych visit is not mandatory. I'm not interested in sitting on a couch talking to a stranger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dohickey01 8 Posted February 24, 2015 The psych visit went great! My paperwork was submitted 2/20. Praying for an acceptance letter and a surgery date by 3/15. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dohickey01 8 Posted March 7, 2015 Oh - got a verbal approval last Thursday - now waiting on he next steps. This stupid snow is slowing everything down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sleeveme15 6 Posted March 17, 2015 (edited) I'm down 30 lbs. since surgery. I never had to go on a preop diet, so all of my weight loss has been post op. Yes, the snow has been a serious pain! Glad it's finally getting to be Spring now. Hopefully your process will go much faster than mine. Edited March 17, 2015 by Sleeveme15 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sleeveme15 6 Posted March 23, 2015 I feel SO MUCH better! I think it's been so long since I have lost weight that I had forgotten how good it feels to be a smaller size. How is it going on all of your approvals? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
