Hey There,

I'm a september sleever.

Just had my pre op appointment on sept 13th.

Doctor's office submitted my paper work to Cigna on that same day.

Excited!!!!

By the way your primary doctor should have no problems signing off on your surgery.

Hi! I just found this place! I have one more pre-op to get through, then I talk to my surgeon

about getting me a surgery date. I started 3/31/15, I have Cigna as well, and went through the very same hoops. Monday is blood work and EKG. I'm hoping for a September date, but it would

depend on his schedule. It's been frustrating at times, but I've lost 32 pounds and feel better, so that's a plus!

It seems like it took forever to get to this point. I know it didn't, but at least I'm almost to Day 1 of my new life! I can finally start living. I've been hiding for 30+ years, basically. I do not have any "issues" other than a BMI of almost 48 in the beginning. but my knees hurt, my hips hurt, forget walking anywhere, aint gonna happen(guess there are some issue out there... ). But even after losing 30 lbs, I notice little things, like walking in the grocery store is easier, for one. I can breathe a bit easier too. Should be awesome when the rest of the weight is off. I've tried every diet out there, just about, except for Jenny Craig or Medifast. WW, Atkins, HCG, all fruit, just Soup, veggie smoothies, and forget the ACV. OMG, just thinking about that one makes me shudder. I am excited, the VGS is my one time shoot to get it right! I will make my body behave itself!

I thought I was going to be with you guys for September, but approval came in on Wednesday from insurance and confirmed yesterday that surgery is scheduled for this Friday, 8/21!! Started my one week pre-op diet today.
