I'm in the same boat. Bcbstx requires a preauthorization then they submit for approval and I can schedule. I just got word today the preauthorization is done! Hopefully I'll have a date by the end of the week. I'm wanting June 20th

I am also going thru bailey, was waiting on my call for my date and it finally happened today. I waited since the 1st week of april. Im not a very patient person so it was killing me to wait, but my date is in less then 3 weeks and i will be on the losers bench. Good luck to you getting your date too.

Kimbero I still don’t have a date. I got insurance approval but still waiting on the doctor to get my clearance letter for stress test. I’m so ready for this to be over.

I understand completely. It will happen, have you tried calling the dr office? Couldn't hurt, I believe if I hadn't called I could still be waiting too.

      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. 🤞

      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.
