Hello!! my surgery is sheduled for the 24th of this month.My doctor alo wants me to lose 10lbs pre op. I am to drink 5 shakes a day ( I use Isopure protein shakes ) and one meal of green and lean protein of choice. My fav so far: baked fish with broccoli, or baked Chicken with green beans or baked salmon with fresh baby spinach that I cook in small amount of water for 5mins. Plus I drink 64oz of water faithfully!! If I fee hungry I either have skim milk or strawberrys.... in two weeks I lost the 10lbs and still have a week and a half to, so I wish to lose even more. I dink no soda( not even diet. If I cant have the real thing, than why bother.), or coffee, no juice! Bottom line, you have to make it work! It is not easy but it can be done!!!

Good luck!! Let us know how it went!!

I am a self pay patient. I have a surgeon that offers BLIS coverage, sine my insurance will not cover post-op complications should I have any. I just found out that I can not withdraw the amount that I need to afford his total fee. I found another surgeon! He can do my surgery sooner, have great comments from past patients, well within my price range, but he does not offer BLIS. What do you think folks? I really want to move forward this.The BLIS coverage was a nice safety net, but do I really need a $4,500 safety net?

BIG PROBLEM!! I am a self pay patient. I met with a surgeon that offers BLIS to S?P patients in case of complications, since my insurance will not cover me in the event of post-op complications. I received news that I can not withdraw the amount of money that I need form my 410K. I found another Dr. within the price range that I need, but he does not offer the BLIS coverage. I want to move forward with this but I'm worried. Any ideas folks??

really happy for you!! Take pics and document every moment lol!! I go in on the 23rd and I want to know what to get ready for. I wish you a very safe surgery!

Crying Inwardly, Can't Believe He Said This!
LaBelle509 replied to thinoneday's topic in Rants & Raves
I totally agree with the previous comment! It's how he said it! He has been with you for a very loooong time, so it is safe to say, that he loves you. He watched you go through so much to lose 150lbs! I am sure that took a LOT. And he knows it. As we know, the pounds add up rather quickly. And sometimes, we don't always see it. So stick with your healthy eating guidelines, get back on track, and forgive your hubby for how he delivered his concerns. Tell him, that you worked hard to get to this point, and have no plan to mess it up! You love and welcome his comments and words of support, but to please be gentle -
I Just Got My Surgery Day Today...yay
LaBelle509 replied to LovingmeForever's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
When is surgery!? and yes I kinda feel nervous too ! I want this to work so bad!! I can NOT fail!! but I do trust my surgeon, so I am not worry about the surgery. I don't even worry much about the recovery phase, because I know the pain/discomfert is part of the deal. But once that part is over, I am nervous about losing weight. -
