    Jangy03253 got a reaction from pixleyb in Hello All   
    Hi Brian. I am also pre op. It is nice to meet you. Only suggestion I have is buckle up and enjoy the ride. This process has been a true roller coaster for me. But follow the nutritionist and doctors orders and the pre op process will be over sooner then u think.

    I had DS with Dr. Sharp at Rex Surgical Specialists. Nov 30th. I can not stress enough how good this group is. Its all about a lifetime with their patients. We get a wealth of information and have all the support we could ever ask for.

    Jangy03253 got a reaction from Michael Hamilton in PRE-OP LIQUID DIET CHEATER   
    I do not start my liquid diet untill nov 16 th. One thing i have learned thru all this is that i have a strong will. I had to quit smoking thru this and have already got rid of my clothes. So i can not give advice on the fast food issue because i have not got there yet. But i can say keeping busy, talking about things i have been thru this far. And sometimes even just taking a nap if me telling myself that i really didnt want that cig or could never wear those clothes again. That would help. Another hard thing i have been thru was when i got my surgery date all of a sudden i craved several reateraunts, along with ice cream from baskin robins and cheeaecake from cheesecake factory. I have passed these places by and just told myself i really did not need to go there cus it was on the other side of the road or oops i missed the driveway or just simply cus i want to be well again. The hardest time was when my grandbaby said she wanted ice cream. I passed it and told her that the doctor said nanny cant have ice cream. She said why nanny? I said well remember nanny has to go to the doctor and get those big shots and she said yes. I said well its so nanny dont have to go to the doctor and get a bunch of shots anymore. She said nanny after your big shots you dont have to have shots no more? I told her not very many. She said good you dont get ice cream. I want to see my granbabies grow up. By the way my big shots is my surgery. She would not understand it any other way but big shots. ???? so maybe use excuses as we all did when we justified something bad for us. Maybe turn them around to be something good for us. Good luck and pass that mickey ds up u can do this.

    Jangy03253 got a reaction from UalreadyKnow in Quit smoking but is vape ok?   
    I used vaping to quit smoking. I smoked for more then 30 years. I only used the juice with 0 nicotine. My juice is 80% VG and 20% PG. I took this to my surgeon and he approved it to use during my surgery. Ds is what I am supposed to get. But he did say that in the end he would like to see me off of the vape also. I vape more in the vehicle. But other then that I can go hours without it now. The first 4 days with no nicotine was the worst. I have had to do it with a selfish husband smoking in front of me and family stressing me out about the surgery. So if I can overcome that with no nicotine anyone can do it. Once u get past the 4 th day with no cig you will realize it's the hand to mouth habit that you miss vaping 0 nicotine juice will take care of that habit. Former smoker about a month out. ????

    Jangy03253 got a reaction from sweetcherrywine in Obama Care   
    Obama care or affordable act. I had to get this coverage after losing my main medical insurance. It was the only thing to cover my pre existing. I am with uhc and in North Carolina. No platinum plans and of course my plan is not avail in 2016. So if u r going to drop private ins to get Obama care you better make sure bariatric is covered and make sure u get it done within 1 year Do not expect your plan to be avail the second year. I have approval but here it is at the end of the year and I'm waiting on pins and needles to see if there is room for me o. The schedule. I would have much rather had Private insurance. Do your research on Obama care. It pays but make sure u know the plan inside and out b4 u chose it or go to specialists

    @okcpirate. Yes sir I am sure there is. I just was giving my own opinion. I would not go out of the country and I do vape. But vape 0 nicotine because I do not wish to get ulcers. If Mexico worked for you that is great. I want a lifetime relationship with my doctor.

    @@KindaFamiliar you are 100% correct. I do not care what a man looks like as far as he is kind and loving ect. But give me a tall dark and handsome that is an egotistical self centered jerk well he would be ugly to me. So yes attractive has to come from the whole package to me.
