2 weeks ago I was given a surgery date of 9/27/19.
This morning the surgeon office called to say they see my insurance only allows bariatric surgery once per lifetime!
Meanwhile I have spent countless hours and money for 3 months of classes and dr appointments. Not to mention work I have missed $$$.
I sobbed when told about this. I called insurance, who by the way told me i was covered when i gave the lapband code and revision. They have to review the phone call from April.
So it will be there word against mine. I'm heartbroken ???

Thank you! I just told my boss today. She seems really supportive. Just got out the vacation book and marked me off for the time. So I'm good to go!!
Hi, I am so happy for you, had my surgery on July 17th. You will be happy with yourself for making this decision.Good luck.
My last step will be the upper GI which I cannot have until 10/2... So it looks like I might end up having surgery in November or December... I guess there are advantages ...
This is really inspiring to read as a fellow sleever. Hope you stick around and continue to motivate us newly sleeved people!

My dr called me yesterday and asked if I could come in sooner than my sept 11th appointment. I am off today, so I went in. AND WALKED OUT WITH A SURGERY DATE!!?!?! Yep, Sept 19th! I start my preop diet on Sunday. (Because I have plans to be out of town on Friday ?) I'm having a lot of conflicting emotions right now. I called my mom and let her know, of course. But everyone else I tried to call/text didn't answer. Just makes me realize that everyone is busy with their own lives until they need me. Anyway. I'm so excited/terrified. I'm extremely blessed for this to be happening quickly. I hope every one of you guys is having an awesome day too!
Rocking size 14 jeans since I can remember. Still have the same restriction I had 8 months out. Eat tiny amounts of whatever I want. Crave protein- not a fan of sugar. Have density issues so easy to avoid bread and pasta- sits too heavy on my stomach.
Been a long time since I checked in- just wanted everyone to see that success is possible if you follow the rules
Hi! I am drinking crystal light in my water, and it makes it easier to consume.
