Topic: RE: PLAYING THE WAITING GAME
Hello and welcome!
What I did was try to learn to change my eating behaviors to get me prepared for surgery.
I read a lot of books, I went to support groups and just spent time with my family.
Trust me at first it feels like it is taking forever but when you come to see 6 months will be gone and you will be saying wow that went fast. lol
Wishing you all the best in your journey.

Welcome back Mare!
I am sorry I am not able to advice but I wanted to wish you all the best in your journey. I hope that everything falls into place for you. You should try calling Cigna and ask them what are their requirements for weight loss surgery.
Have a fantastic weekend.

Yes, I live and work for CareFirst and have Blue Choice myself. My husband had the sleeve on 3/1/11 and I had RNY on 4/5/11. You just need to meet certain criteria. Call Customer Service and they will review all that with you. Good luck :-)
Topic: RE: LAPBAND VS SLEEVE
Suggest you also post on the VSG forum. Many people there had bands and revised to sleeves!

Ok, so 6 months seems so far away.
What did you all do in the meantime.
I really need help because it feels like time is going nowhere for us.
I have gotten 4 books from the library and reading them. I am on OH everyday like its facebook.
