  1. Dear Lord some of you guys make me feel like I am being attacked. My doctor and the hospital got creditation as the best here.

    We start with two weeks of clear liquid Two weeks of thicker . And yes his diet consists of all Protein. I eat so little I couldnt even add anything else . I am full with a little meat. I love it , I love my band I am healthy I am half off blood pressure meds. I can walk breath and live again.

    I was taught to eat all the food groups but it didnt help me. This has helped me. I am happy with it. I feel bad that I mentioned it for you guys get so hefty . Our website is Welcome to ObesityNoMoreFL.com!

    You can see there everyone is doing well. But thanks for your input. I will ask no more.


  2. My dr is E Rehnke . He is the top surgeon in Florida. I take certain Vitamins and I have blood tests taken all the time. I have no problems at all. Except for at the end its slowing down the weightloss like everyone else I know.

    If I add veggies and or carbs I wouldnt have lost 96 lbs. I use supplements to replace the neccessary nutrients. Once I get to my goal I will add veggies and carbs to my diet.

    Every one goes by what there doc tells them.


  3. Thanks Chickie,

    I eat only meat that is what our dr requires til u get to goal. And I eat like maybe 3 to 4 oz's. Dr had me write everything down for a week. And said I was doing great. That we are like autos some run on more gas. I am the lesser. Very slow metabolism. The pill I chose is not a diet pill. It is certain Vitamins and minerals that help move things. And I dont have to purchase my prenatal vitamins with this. It has more in it. So I am trying it. My son in law works with drs and doesnt believe in diet stuff. I trust him.


  4. I am two years out and have like 60 lbs to go. I am a very slow loser. Due to being a self pay I can't afford my fills on time. The best thing is I havnt gained. My son in law just introduced me to this stuff called Zylene. It helps with appetite doesnt have ephederine or caffeine in it. I was worried about taking it cause I have high blood pressure. So I brought it to my doc and he said it was good. I am very excited . Been taking it for just two days. I have 4 daughters and each of them lost lbs on it. So I am praying I will too! I need the extra boost. I will let you know how this works on me . I trust my kids so I signed up to get it for less. Here is the site its on

  5. Take Biotin and zinc. it will do that for a while then it will stop. I had a boss who complained that my hair was all over the office. I felt bad but now I could care less almost a hundred pounds lighter and my hair stopped falling out. So dont worry . What a small price to pay for the rest of your life feeling healthy and great. it will stop I promise.


  6. I have been out 1 1/2 years. I love my band. I always wished for something or someone to help me. I found that help. And that is just what the band is help . Nothing is magic by itself. My band has helped me live again . I have lost 87 lbs and still losing. I can breath again. I can walk again without pain. My only wish is that I wish I could have had the band years ago when I was younger. But I have it now and baby I've only just begun...................to live ! woooo hoooo!


  7. Thankyou my friend. You are so right . My husbands boss just took over this company and he didnt know there was an exclusion in the insurance. He is trying but it doesnt look good. I dont know what else to say to them. We have taken a 2nd mortgage and its going to be tough but worth it.

    Thankyou again

    I do not understand that unless there is a rider through your husband's insurance excluding this type of surgery. You are you a little heavier than I am. I did not have high blood pressure but insulin resistance and slightly enlarged heart and they approved me within 15 days..I did bug them. I would have your husband's work check their exclusions . . and then appeal. I am so sorry and I really do realize how frustrated and disappointed you are. KEEP BEING PUSHY!!


  8. I was denied by United Health Care just a few days ago. My husband called and they said it was elective , risky, and no insurance would cover it. Meanwhile I have other bandi friends who had the same insurance and had it done. They also weighed less then me. I am 298lbs,not 5'3" hav high blood pressure. among other things. I cant understand. my husands employer said he would look into it. That he payed $60,000 a yr plus what his only 12 employees pay out of there checks.

    I dont know what to do . I am so sad. We are taking a loan my surg date is 5/31.
