As I have been on just about every diet out there. My problem is the exercising which I know to do it but the problem is my work schedule. I work graveyards and I am trying to make adjustments. I know that is a poor excuse but I need figure out to get this to work for me.
I need some suggestions, if anyone can assist that would be awesome.
My questions are:
1. How many times do you have to get a fill?
2. Does anyone get side effects like Nausea etc?
3. How long does the approval take?
4. How long is the procedure itself?
5. Is this outpatient procedure? Or in patient?
6. Do you have to prove you have sleep disorder?
7. Do most insurances approve the operation?
8. once the operation is done - do you have follow a strict diet? Like shakes? if so what kind?
9. Can you go back to work the next day or in my case Nights? once the procedure is done.
Any suggestions would be awesome

My questions are:
1. How many times do you have to get a fill? I have had 4, it has been over a year since my last fill. My brother has never had a fill (but in my opinion needs one. He as lost 80 pounds with no fill in his band but he has started to put some back on.
2. Does anyone get side effects like Nausea etc? Never had this problem.
3. How long does the approval take? took 2 weeks for me.
4. How long is the procedure itself? I was in surgery for 45 minutes and they also repaired a hyatial (spelling) hernia in that time.
5. Is this outpatient procedure? Or in patient? Mine was inpatient
6. Do you have to prove you have sleep disorder? Sleep study
7. Do most insurances approve the operation? no idea, mine did
8. once the operation is done - do you have follow a strict diet? Like shakes? if so what kind? I drank 2 Protein shakes - total.
9. Can you go back to work the next day or in my case Nights? once the procedure is done. I'd say you need 1 week off.
