I'm still in the before approval stages lol. I was approved for the program but I have to complete it before I get approved for the surgery. I have a few last forms to turn in and then they will send a request to my insurance.

Thanks - yes, things do seem to be falling into place so far. Are you still waiting for approval, or do you already have a date for your surgery?

I am leaning towards the RNY surgery. Right now I'm still in the beginning stages, but I did find out that my insurance covers it, so that's a bit of a relief. Now it's just a matter of getting all the paperwork done and all the other things that the insurance may require. :)

Congratulations Bethany!  You will have approval and a date before you know!  I started my 2 week liquid diet today for my Jan 22 surgery date.

Topic: Almost there!

So I've been cleared through cardiac, pulmonary, psych, nutrition, exercise, and finally just had my physical! I feel like this has taken forever! 13 months since I did the seminar! The only things left I have to do are get copies of my 6 month diet history and my last pap and I'll be good to go! I am excited/nervous with what is coming next!

Glad to hear that you have the new BCBS and everything is falling into place! I know I'm going crazy just waiting!

I'm glad to see more people commenting! It's nice to know that I'm not the only one looking for information and support! Which surgery do you plan on getting?

Hi there! I'm pre-op as well and I have been on this board, but you're right, not many people post. Which is a shame because it would be nice to have support from others nearby. Hopefully this board will be hopping again soon. It'd be great to get to know all of you!  :)
