Hello. Has anyone had this revision and what is your experience?

You definetly need to discuss this topic with your doctor.

Hi, I am new here. I am 28 years old, have struggled with weight issues all my life. I have been severely obese from past 2 years and have hit my highest weight. I struggle with no motivation to exercise as I feel drained all the time. I don't have friends who can understand what I am going through. Having thyroid issues doesn't help my energy levels either. I have decided to start on my health journey. I am not going to post anything apart my weight every week. will not post anything related to diet/workout that I follow, just simply my weight (every Friday,). Feel free to join me on this, if you feel the same that you need simple support/encouragement from someone by just posting your weight loss results every week and that if it might help in pushing each other forward on our health journey.

Thanks for reading my post.

PS: my next post will be 19th.

I have this issue too!

Hi! I am new here, but had a VSG several years ago. Due to a traumatic injury, I have struggled to keep the weight off I had lost and have been in the process of trying to get approved for a revision to RNY. I started the approval process and took the required classes, etc. and then covid shut downs stopped everything. I spent the last few years slowly getting worse. Today, I learned that my surgeon wants to go ahead and submit to my insurance (I still have Medicaid until the covid emergency order is lifted). The hospital program has agreed to allow me to skip the weeks of classes because I'd done them before. It is United Healthcare Community Plan. My BMI is now 42. Does anyone have experience with getting approved for this and how long it might have taken to get approval? I'm a little overwhelmed. Thank you!
