that's awesome! I've chosen dr marema as well.. im on month 4 of my required pre op diet for my insurance.. my issue is if i loose another pound i drop below bmi of 40..

I am so happy to hear from you all! thank you all! well I am presurgery.. waiting for approval from uhc.. I need 6 months documented diet and exercise although my 3 months at ww don't count.. I picked Dr marema in st Augustine fl.. I am very worried post surgery with meal planning bc I have 3 kids under 5!

my husband just doesn't get it. no matter how many times I've explained nutrition weight losd exercise.. I would love to have some support"

anyone heard of the new outpatient procedure mayo? they go thru the esophagus and staple the stomach.. ?

any takers!

any experiences with Dr Kim at Florida hospital or Dr marema (flagler hospitAl)

thanks..

UHC has a 6 month diet and exercise requirement that must be supervised by a physician. I have already been doing weight watchers over 3 months now and working out, but today was my first doctor visit. Does anyone know if I can use the last 3 months towards my 6 months? I really had hopes I could schedule my surgery in 3 months.

I'm in oviedo.. who is your surgeon? I really like Dr marema

I'm in Orlando as well. Surgery next month. Where in Orlando are you?

I'm in east Orlando.. not sure how far are you are? sure would love some support

looking for friends/ support

i am in process of getting approved for vcg through united healthcare. i have researched the docs in orlando and so far am a bit dissapointed. i am in final steps of choosing dr robert marema in st augustine. any feedback would be great! i am excited and scared!

I meant Dr merema (flagler hospital) st Augustine.

hi everyone . I live in Central Florida and have been researching bariatric surgeons. I've seen really great reviews about dr. Merima in St Augustine.. the surgeons here in Orlando makes me a bit nervous.. any input on any of the docs in Orlando or Dr Miramar would be great.
