  1. that sounds like a policy thing which your company probably requires. Call and double check
  2. forgot to say I am only 6 days post op i've lost weight, but I really can't tell you if my IUD has any effect yet.
  3. I used to get Depo shots for about 8 yrs before finding out that it was one of the reason's I was gaining weight, after I had my son and they asked which birth control I wanted, I said anything that doesn't have homones I came to find out that all hormonal birth controls have that as a side affect, you could or could not have that side affect, but after what happen to me with the Depo shot I decided not to risk it... I have an IUD now I don't remember the name of it I just know it's the one that last 10 yrs and doesn't have homones.
  4. Great sounds like your off and running
  5. Stupid Question how many days or how much gas x did you take till it worked
  6. I am going to try the gas x and see if that helps. My dr. puts you on mushy food your last day in the hospital, I personally put myself back on liquids cause I couldn't stand the feeling, but like I said it hurts with liquids too just not as much.
  7. I'm 4 days post op and can't eat more then 3 tsp of food at a time. I can't figure out if I am full or not because since surgery I've been having severe pain right behind my breast bone some have said it was gas, but I don't know, at first it was constant now the pain is there every time I swallow even if it is just my spit. Glad your feeling better maybe day 6 is the day i'm looking for now lol...
  8. Thank you see you on the other side
  9. thats sounds really good Thanks
  10. Congrats... Cheers to a speedy recovery
  11. My is on Wednesday and I am so not ready, I thought I was till a woke up today and noticed my hampers (2) were full, and I didn't go shopping yet. Well I did but the kids ate all the jello I bought and my ice pops ( my dr only requires 2 day pre diet ) so I just got back from the store cause I have to start my diet tomorrow. Well good luck to everyone and i'll see you on the other side.
  12. congrats, glad your here the more the better...
  13. I have UHC and I am between 39 - 40 depends on who's scale PCP had 39 bmi on her letter, surgeon had 40 (with pre- diabetes)
  14. Along with the Gatorade and Popsicles my Dr's list says Water, tea, juices, Jello, ices, ice pops (avoid red-colored Jello and ices and dairy) of course you should check with your dr
  15. Good Luck I have UHC too, and it was a pretty quik response, but I didn't switch. they seem to be pretty easy as long as you meet their requirements..
  16. I hope everything works out, I'll be praying for you
  17. Great ? wish I could help, but I haven't had my surgery yet.. I'll be watching to see what others say
  18. Congrats on your new sleeve, Glad to hear your doing well
  19. I haven't gotten sleeved yet, but I can tell you that 3yrs ago when I quit smoking I felt the same way... I seemed like when I smoked I was the only one in the world smoking, but as soon as I quit I felt like everybody was smoking... Hang in there.
  20. Love trader Joes mine is 45 minutes away and so worth the trip, I didn't find them over priced I actually think their price's are pretty much in line with the rest of the grocery stores one long island.
  21. You look awesome.. Congrats on the weight loss that is amazing
