I remember what that was like. It was a huge waiting game. Just try and focus on the positive and think how great it will be when you are banded.

Hi Cookie :wave: why do you think you'd be denied? Did you meet all of the requirements? I remember worrying about the same thing, even thought I KNEW I met all the requirements. Two weeks later....approved! Let us know how you make out :)

Hi, thanks for your comments. I guess I am more nervous because I don't have my family's support. I am a single mom with two kids, they are both excited about it. My mom is scared and so are my brothers and sisters. I called the Dr's office today and they said I should have an answer by the end of this month. Thanks Again and have a great weekend.

I didn't even want to mess with insurance or do the six month medically supervised diet so I just paid cash and went to Mexico. Best thing I ever did.

I'm almost to goal, had I gone through my insurance I would have just finished the supervised diet.

      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.
