While you are waiting for your approval do not be afraid to call your insurance 2-3 times a week. Don't be a pest but keep on them. I found out on 9/22 that I was denied because I called them. I wouldn't not have found out until 10/2 if I would have just waited for the letter. So since I already knew a second letter has been submitted and they have now requested additional information. Out of the 4 things that they have requested 2 of them are done and the other 2 will be done Monday night, 10/6. It is so worth calling them. (I also keep a call log) Just thought I would share.

Thank you! That helps!

Anyone have some examples of Post-Op daily food intake examples? Trying to get an idea of what is "ok"

thank you for the wonderful advice. After hearing what you guys have said it sounds like it is really no big deal. I am getting so excited. Cant wait! How are you doing Alexandra?

wonderful! Thank you! It just feels strange that I have to take a psych exam so I am a little nervous. I'm not nuts just tired of being fat!

very cool! Thank you! This is the kind of stuff that I need. I have a psych exam on monday the 6th. Any one know what that's like?

Did anyone's insurance require a list of weight loss attempts? Mine is and I don't even know where to start. Does anyone have an example to can use? I am not good with words. PLEASE HELP!

Congrats Tash! We are all behind you Alex!

What was the hardest thing you had to adjust to after you were banded? I am in the very early stages of trying to get approved for the band so it is all I can think about.

Thank you! I am in the process of trying to get approved by my insurance to get banded. My insurance sounds like they will do it! Fingers crossed! I do have problems with low blood sugar a couple of times a week as well so it sounds promising that it shouldn't get worse if I take care of myself.

Has anyone suffered from low blood sugar after banding? And if so was it worse? What were you able to do in order to help control it?

Thanks for the info. I am so worried that I will be turned down. I am feeling a little guilty. Feels like I am giving up. Yet I am excited and hope that I don't get turned down.
