So frustrated
Yep..when you are scheduling your appointments,dr visits and tests and observations and referrals you will find that time goes by fast.These insurance companies make you jump through hoops.If I had the money I would just self pay...I spent 6 months starting from scratch for this revision.Finally approved.

I am revising to RNY because this band is misery....My friend who doesn't know I have the lapband just got the sleeve and she is doing the same thing...slime,vomit and heave....I did my research and I am revising to bypass...

I'm hearing I'm taking the easy way out from family and friends
Lapbands should be stopped completely.

Serious Decison To Make
I love people who say they are getting the lapband or sleeve because it's less invasive.GIVE ME A BREAK!!! I was one of those people back in 2004 when I got the lapband...it was my choice. Etween lapband and bypass..."I chose to go with "the less invasive""""please vomiting ,sliming,slipping,eroding...damage to my esophagus plus I am back fat as all get out"!!!Having long needles injected through a port...I have developed all kinds of issues....damage to my stomach,pouch and esophagus....The "sleeve "is now the new flavor of the moment procedure....Cuuting out 85% of your stomach is very invasive if you ask me.

At the rate you ate losing...this will be a non issue.The beautiful part is you are still the same person at 300 pounds or 190 pounds and people need to be enlightened in regards to their stupidity.

Ridiculously long time waiting for insurance approval
Sounds like your doctor's office is not on top of it as you think.Missing codes or a request for more information is sometimes required.Call or go visit the dr office and speak with the administrator.Let her make a call to the insurance company while you wait in office....I had to be relentless...I kept on everyone's butt...

Extra small stomach
Add protein shots powder to the Isopure.Also try coconut water and try adding protein shots/non flavored protein.At least you won't feel dehydrated.
