I'm new here - awaiting 1st appointment
leannel90 replied to Barefoot Bliss's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hi...I don't have to wait long at all. I'm self pay though. If you're waiting for insurance it could take longer but each company varies. Definitely give them a call. When I went the doctor said I could have my surgery in a month. There are mandatory appointments with the nutritionist and psychologist. Then a two week fast and then voila. -
Did anyone have a problem with pop/soda?
leannel90 replied to leannel90's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
My doc also stated that I might be able perhaps have one can of Diego soda a week...if my tummy could take it. I think just hearing that they're still available to me won't make it so bad! -

That is very exciting. I can't wait for that moment. I've always been embarrassed to go into stores that may not sell plus size fashions. I went shopping in a regular store once for my Mom and a sales clerk approached me to tell me that they didn't sell anything over 14. My worst nightmare had come true. I left that store in tears. I can't wait to go back to that store...try on thousands of dollars worth of clothes, get them all to the register and rung in and then tell them I've changed my mind and leave! Good for you...celebrate!!!!

Tighter Isn't Always Better
leannel90 replied to Jean McMillan's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Magazine
This made me feel so much better. I was at my doctor the other day and when I said the word restriction he told me not to use it. He gave me the same information as this article but I haven't heard this as much as I've seen the word restriction. I really enjoyed this article...thanks! -
Day 2 pre op starving
leannel90 replied to misscarrie36's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It does seem weird but so worth it. Id hate for the doctor to not care and take a nic out of your liver!! If you're strong then I'll know I can do it too...I take a lot to get motivated too and the people on here are so great. -
This was not in the brochure
leannel90 replied to NJHAZMAT's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I asked my doctor about the shoulder pain and he told me that they've made great strides in that area by using humidified air to blow up your stomach. I'm hoping that the discomfort is minor. I had a laporoscopy done about 10 years ago and that shoulder pain sucked!! -
Congrats msrhonda I sure hope I do that well!!
