vers2017 9 Posted October 22, 2016 So I already got the appr9val from my insurance company for the surgery but since I have had my depo shit and gained like 10 pounds this month so very nervous to go for my final weight in. Any one experience this. I haven't changed my diet I don't know what's going on Sent from my VS880PP using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trekker954 421 Posted October 22, 2016 The insurance approval would have been based on what your surgeon provided them. I assume you received a approval letter from the insurance company. I don't believe they need to resubmit a request for approval again. Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rny100516 15 Posted October 22, 2016 So I already got the appr9val from my insurance company for the surgery but since I have had my depo **** and gained like 10 pounds this month so very nervous to go for my final weight in. Any one experience this. I haven't changed my diet I don't know what's going on Sent from my VS880PP using the BariatricPal App I gained 4 p ounds but they put me on the pre op diet. I think had I gained more the pre op diet would have been longer or more severe. I had 2 shakes, 2 Snacks and a low carb dinner for the first week. The 2nd week was 5 shakes only all liquid. I think had I gained more weight my diet would have been full liquid longer. Some patients get 3, 4 or 5 weeks of pre op diet. Good luck though, 10 pounds could be hormonal and will fall off quickly on your pre op plan if you have one! God luck!

vers2017 9 Posted October 31, 2016 My last weight in today so not sure yet. I had opted for the depo shot the last 2 months cause my surgeon recommended birth control before hand as a precautionary step. Also to stop taking my oasis and I know the pounds have racked on. But my insurance company already approved the surgery. Just feels like a situation that can't be helped. Just ready for my surgery date already to start this new life of mine Sent from my VS880PP using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
