    I'm discouraged also! The amount of food & calories I have each day should equal weight loss, but not happening. I'm 4 1/2 wks too; only down 5 pounds
  2. love your input - my surgery is in the am so I'm sure I'll be checking back frequently!
  3. that is awesome to lose that much in 4 months - before you know it you'll be at your goal!
  4. tomorrow am @ 7:30 am
  5. My surgery date is Friday, March 30th - cautiously optimistic I can do this! Good luck March bandsters!!
  6. is it possible to move your appt up to discuss your feelings? hang in there!
  7. that's why I have only told a few people, even only 1 of my 5 siblings know - I don't want people giving me negative feedback!
  8. good luck - with this website we can all help each other - my surgery is 3-30 - I'm afraid I will fail also, but together we can encourage each other - god bless all of us and give us the strength we need!
  9. Just wondering how long you were off work if you have an office job? thanks
  10. most doctor offices will help you with the appeal process; if your doesn't, maybe another doctor will help you out. I read most appeals go through if you want to go through the hassle. There's also a book, weight loss surgery for dummies, that tells you how to appeal. hope this helps.
  11. I got my approval today, didn't take long at all - surgery scheduled for March 29th - woohoo!!
  12. wow, I don't know how I missed knowing about the pre-op diet! I'm waiting on my insurance approval, so after that comes in I see my doc. I guess that's when I'll start my pre-op diet. Good luck everyone - I know I'm going to need it!
  13. I have Highmark PPO Blue & was wondering the same thing - the assistant for my doc said it takes 4 - 6 weeks - that seems so long
