I think it went very well today. The took my labs and did the EKG. I met with the nurse. Everyone kept telling me how great my insurance was ( United Healthcare) She said that my BMI is higher than I thought. :lol: It is 45.6:frown: But of course it is high enough for that to be one of my only requirements. I have to get her my 5 year weight history on Monday and they will for the labs and everything should be submitted by next week. She said that with United that most approvals can take 1-2 weeks if you stay calling them everyday. So if all goes well I have a tenative date of 8-1. I am in the process of getting my weight history together and hopefully it goes smooth.:thumbup:

That's fantastic! I have United Healthcare too, and my approval was very fast (I think less than a week). So, hopefully you will have the same experience!
