  3. coachk11233

    after losing weight did anybody have an issue with a tattoo they had when they were larger

    1. JamieLogical

      JamieLogical

      I don't have any tattoos, but I could definitely see how that could become a problem, depending on where the tattoo is, how much weight you lose, and how much loose skin you have in the area.

      I bought Premier Protein (strawberry and vanilla). They are awesome but I am lactose intolerant so my tummy I could't handle it. Also, I liked EAS but Premier is my all time favorite.

  13. coachk11233

    Did anybody have an issue with the liquid diet pre lapband surgery

  14. coachk11233

    did anyones health care cover excess skin surgery ?? if so

    1. JamieLogical

      JamieLogical

      My health insurance policy explicitly states it won't cover skin removal surgery post-WLS. I paid for my skin surgery out of pocket in Mexico. Had a great experience and ended up really glad I had to pay for it myself, because the level of care and personal attention I received in Mexico was WAY above and beyond anything I would have received in the US.

    2. KellyKell

      KellyKell

      Blue Cross Blue Shield has covered it in the past. That was a few years ago so I am not sure about now.

      when u went to nyu did they keep talking about the dietician fee ??

    3. gowalking

      gowalking

      I had to pay for the nut and the psyche eval out of pocket. I just sucked it up and paid it and considered it the cost of doing business. Don't get hung up on this one thing. Keep your focus on your goal of getting WLS. Which doctor are you using there? I used Dr. Ren based on a friend's recommendation and I've been very happy with her.

    4. coachk11233

      coachk11233

      Dr ren

  25. coachk11233

    had anybody seen a shrink for the approval letter and they wrote it instad of typing

    1. VDB

      VDB

      Coach, I am a shrink and would consider it unprofessional to handwrite a letter like that.
