I have BCBS as my primary and secondary ins When I had gotten approved by my primary I had no idea my 2nd would cover anything. Then I decided to submit ot and they did! So both covered me and the wait on the BCBS TX was only about 2-3 weeks. Sent from my iPhone using VST

O ya I took a Vicodin about an hr before I was getting it out. Sent from my iPhone using VST

It didn't hurt at all to come out and I felt 100x better with that literal PAIN out! Lol mine was also very sore when it was in and I has almost instant relief when it was removed. Sent from my iPhone using VST

Well I stall about once a month for about a week. Weight loss is slow but steady otherwise. I haven't done Anythjng but walk occasionally bit not enough for sure. I'm joining a gym next week finally! Sent from my iPhone using VST

I'm only 3 month out but I can eat whatever I want just in much smaller portions of course. I still go out to eat with my family. Although I'm done way before them and have to pace myself. Its all good I feel normal as could be Sent from my iPhone using VST

O yes I will get there. Still have to start really hitting the gym consistently! Then I think the rest will come off. My 20 yr anniversary is Aug 28. So I'm hoping to be real close to goal by then! Sent from my iPhone using VST

Wow. Crazy! Now something else to think about LOL Sent from my iPhone using VST

Glad u feel better! I'm in the medical field and we always learned a bezoar is a hair ball. Which can happen to ppl who chew on their hair. Didn't know it could be anything that won't digest. Interesting! But funny thing is.... I had my surg feb6 and wr just got a new dog in jan. who sheds sooo bad and now it seems like I can eat less than I could about 6 wks ago. So I thought man I have a hair ball from this dog shedding and I probably breath it in and swallow it and DON'T KNOW IT! Lol. Maybe I should get checked!!!??! B I didn't vomit for the 1st 6 weeks but now I do lately. Not often tho. Hummmm??? Sent from my iPhone using VST

Mine did the same thing for atleast 6 weeks it was about 90-115 and now almost 11 weeks out its back in the 70's. At first my dr thought I was dehydrated but I wasn't. Sent from my iPhone using VST

Exactly better to reach it slower than to never get there. I've dieted off n on for 17 YEARS sooo ya 17 months is a drop in the bucket . I started at 205 now 170 so I have 35-40 to go. It will come no matter how long it takes!!! And the plus side is virtually no chance of gaining back! Sent from my iPhone using VST

Cheri how long did it take you to lose what you lost? That's is great that u are pretty much at goal!!! Amazing! Sent from my iPhone using VST

I'm 5'0" highest wt 215 starting wt 205 day of surg 194. Now 10 weeks post op 170. I'm feeling better. Goal is 130-135. Slow n steady. Plus I haven't exercised consistently yet. Sent from my iPhone using VST

You can do it! U will do great and just try your best to stick to the pre op diet. I know I didn't do it perfectly either. But now at 10 weeks out I feel good. I'm losing slowly but losing none the less! I also had oral cancer 6 yrs ago. So I know what you mean about gettjg healthy! I'm also 42! Sent from my iPhone using VST

I had ALOT of chcolate covered almonds this past Easter week. I had bought a small bag and my oldest daughter had bought me a bigger bag and lotto scratch offs for Easter. Lol. So now they are gone and not buying anymore fo quite awhile!!!' honestly I eat what I want in very small portions o course. I dont really count calories or anything else but I do try to drink as much Water as possible. Im almost 9 weeks out and I haven't exercised consistently yet but i have still lost 37 total 26 since surg. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I have this too when I eat a bit too much but I also got this way from time to time before surg and it was an almost continuous thing that sometimes would last a day or two. It was weird. Sent from my iPhone using VST

Let me put my stats since everyone is. Highest wt 215 Starting weight 205 5'0" Surg wt 194 Current wt 170 Memorial day goal 155 Goal wt 125-130 Sent from my iPhone using VST

Yep had to do the 10 wk program plus 6 mo supervised visits but I hear now it's only the 10 wk program for approval. It's always changing and I think they are still learning the ropes as far as christus insured ppl. I have heard our own ins is the hardest for them to deal with so who knows !
