Loved it a little too much. The scale moved in the wrong direction this week:nervous

Before banding, I drank any and everything (except beer):cocktail:. Now I attempt to watch my liquid calories, especially in those mixed drinks and I usually have cognac or rum w/a twist of lemon.

So glad you're on your way to recovery. I had a revision 7 wks after my original surgery, so I feel you pain. Rest up and take it easy.

I have no exerience w/Aetna but my surgical coordinator told me that Aetna was the hardest to get approval from. I also did a 6mth supervised diet. I was concerned in the beginning about losing too much, but my insurance will approve w/a BMI of 40+ or BMI of 35+ w/2 documented co-morbities, which I had. So I was kind of, sort of safe:confused:

PCP visits had to pay co-pay ($10) Pre-op test (EKG, Upper GI, etc) - all covered by insurance Dietician- had to pay co-pay of $20 at each visit Psych. test - I didnt need one but it was not covered by insurance
