  5. oh man i cant wait for the day i can do that i dont really wear anything but my slipons because of it
  6. im so sorry this happened this is why i called my insurance company directly and asked about my benifits directly and i made sure they sent it to me in writing. i am pre-aproved for surgery also because of my high bmi and co morbities so i really dont have any advice other than call your insurance directly. or if you make less then the poverty level maybe apply for medicaid they sometimes cover it depends on the state you live in mine does
  7. i know your still getting over the hurt but whenever one of my pets dies i make sure to go hit up the local rescue and adopt another little fur baby there are so many that need love and im sure roxy would't mind a playmate

  9. when i had the first operation on my ear this summer the hubby was supper involved and supportive helped me in and out of bed bought me a cane to walk with because i was too unsteady to walk on my own bought me food even after i had thrown up my food all day for days at a time. so i am blessed he doesn't know how long ill need him after the sleeve surgery but i know for sure he will be there patient as always
  10. im so sorry people suck they really do
  11. this is the reason i am glad my insurance doesnt require a 5 year weight history because my drs office is freaking incompatent i called to get the pcp code for bariatric surgery something i needed for my insurance through the state and it took them a week to get it to me

  14. i was told we would get Protein shakes in the hospital what day i dont know but i know they will be ready made
  15. i was told the complete opposite of you i was told i would be doing 4 oz of protein shakes 3x a day post surgery for 7 weeks with either powder or ready made shakes on top of my meals
  16. ive been asked this question before. the first time was when i was 12 by another classmate to make fun of me. but now most of the time when people haven't seen me in a while i have to do the dance of no not pregnant just fat its annoying but once i lose the weight i don't want to do the dance of no not sick just losing weight
  17. maybe you have a stricture i would deffinatly call your dr
  18. i am so glad my inlaws are not like this. they work in health care so they know how to keep a secret and let me tell people on my own
  19. i just want to chime in and say im so sorry for all of you who don't have a supportive spouse that must be terrible.
  20. i agree it sounds like the dreaded 3 week stall you will be fine just let your body catch up to your weight loss
