Hi there. I will soon be going to the informational seminar for Gastric Sleeve. I'm one of those people who makes up their mind, researches the heck out of it and then wants to get it done! All except dieting, sigh. I have Blue Cross Blue Shield through United Airlines and my biggest fear at this point is how long it will take to get approved (and if). I've heard up to 3 years!!! Anyone have any quick approvals to share? Do they all make you go through yet another 6 month supervised diet program? Face it, we've all been that route several times! I've done Nutrisystem, Jenny Craig, Weight Watcher online, doctor supervised, phen-fen, just fen. I've done it on my own, dedicated to the gym and good diet for 6 months and only lost 20 lbs and couldn't budge another pound. I've lost a lot of weight over the years and can't keep it off. Like I have this set point my body wants to return to. Anyway, I should get my package of forms and info in the mail tomorrow or soon. Seminar the 20th for sure but am hoping for a cancellation the 7th. I have to drive 4 1/2 hours to get there but its the closest one approved for facility and doctor by the insurance. Wish me luck as I do all of you.,
