  1. I am so glad I found other veggie people ( to include all non meat eating categories ) on here!!!! I hopefully will be banded sometime this month, I will get my surgery date this Friday!!! :huh2: "Vegan Planet" by Robin Robertson has tons of recipes!! Are there any groups for veggie people?? Good luck to everyone!! Kristi
  2. The band slippage does concern me, especially since I just finished up with a cold/flu with horrible uncontrollable coughing. Anyone have that and have the band be ok?
  3. :omg: I am soooo scared after reading all of your posts!!! I have Aetna POS II, and am doing the 3 month Nurse Pract/Dietician weight loss visits. I will be done with those mid-March. I have a flow chart from the Dr. office in another state for 2003 and 2004 and from a gyn and pulmonologist for 2005 and from my ob dr. for 2006 and from my PCP for 2007 and 2008. Will that make a diff that they are all from different places? I also have sleep apnea and have a BMI of 48. I wish you all luck!!!! :clap2: Hopefully I will get approved. :nervous Kristi
  4. I soooo agree!!! I have had my seminar and am in the process of having all of my tests done, and after reading so many of these posts, I am having second thoughts as well.
  5. :help:Hi, I have Aetna POS, and was wondering if it is better to go to an in-network Dr. or out-of-network. I went to a seminar the other night and they said they are out-of-network for all insurances, but will only charge what the insurance will pay. They wouldn't charge for the addt 30% or so. Anybody have any idea which is better??? Thanks!!!! Kristi
