  1. Hi there! I have my first consultation on Wednesday. I am anxious to get this done and am wondering how long approval will take. The question I want to post here is: How long did it take for you to get approval from the first consultation to the day of surgery? Thanks!
  2. I read that you can have an occasional glass of wine....I bet you could have a light beer but only if you shake it up and let it get flat first. But who would want that??
  3. Congrats on your approval Nana!
  4. How long did you have to do food/exercise logs for? I'm wondering if I should start that now before my first visit? I have been searching out all of my medical records. I didn't have a PCP so I had to get them from 7 different doctors.
  5. Hm interesting question! I had not thought about this at all. I wonder if anybody's sig others have had adverse reactions to the weight loss?
  6. I'm going to Dr Johnell in Greeley Colorado. He is a center of excellence & has great results!!
  7. Yes, keep me posted! Did you have to do a lot of grunt work to get stuff ready for your insurance, or was it mainly testing and things like that? What about a medically supervised diet?
  8. Are you above 40 now? I hadn't thought about that. I don't know if I have been about 40 for 5 years either...
  9. I am going to Dr Johnell on August 8th for my consultation. I will let you know what I think....
