Cateyez001,

I am set yo have mine removed and the Rousen Y (Spell) done on 14 AUG 2017. My Doctors stated this was the fastest they have ever seen a surgery approval, ever! Yeah for good insurance and good documentation! it took one week with one letter.

letitgoeb can you tell me what your food intake is like now? What's on the menu for Breakfast?

I was wondering is there was anyone that has had their lap band removed and a gastric bypass completed? My band seems to have a mind of its own and I am now awaiting approval from my insurance provider to replace it. If there is anyone that I can lean on for questions about life after the bypass and removal that would be great!

Hello everyone. My name is Allie. I have been lurking here for a while, but finally decided to start posting.

I'm 22 years old and 264 pounds.

Finally ready to make a change that is going to better my life and my future.

I have been to my psych evaluation and the nutritionist already, just have to see a sleep doctor and I'm going to be submitted to insurance.

I'm really nervous, but excited at the same time. Also I can't help but feel worried about if I fail at this too, I have only failed at weight loss before in my life.

I know this is the right decision for me, but I hope I can do it.

Allie,

I understand the way your feeling completely. I began the 3 months of diet and psch. consult 2 months ago and am awaiting the final month before surgery. I was leaning towards gastic bypass, but No longer. I'll go with the band. I was worried about failing too, but whats helped is packing my lunches, and charting everthing I eat or drink. If you havent started that I suggest you do! :cool:
