Hey guys I got Fidelis care my papers were submitted and I got a call from the insurance saying inpatient was approved but was wondering if there is another approval letter?

Fidelis calls and sends you a letter. I have fidelis also. The day after my surgical coordinator said she sent the paper work they called and said I was approved. Then I received a letter about a week later.

I am scheduled for September 21st. Currently in the 2 week pre-op clear liquid stage.

It's not terrible but getting headaches. Anyone else struggling through the clear liquid stage?

My question too...

Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Yes the Facebook group is for sleevers also. I requested to join and I got in. The administrator of the group is probably getting a lot of requests, so give her time to respond to your request. It is a good group of ppl, very supportive.

      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.

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