I was doing that also but then saw that taste may change. I bought the Dummies for weight loss surgery cookbook which has some pretty good stuff in it. Well crossing my fingers for you that everything goes well!!!

Congrats to you!!!

Thanks for answering. I did happen to find that out last night from the insurance company. Have you had your surgery yet?

That is great news!!!

LOL!!! MitchieMay when is your surgery?

I just called both the surgeon and my health insurance company. As long as I started the journey at 40 I am okay because they will like to see some progress made. As long as I don't gain I should be good!!! Thanks everyone for answering me. So much information to take in sometimes. Have a great day!!!!

I don't think it was. I am using my PCP and a nutritionist that they sent me to. Well the practice that will be doing the surgery I HAVE to meet with their nutritionist once after I have seen my PCP 4 months in a row. So when I started BMI was 40, following the nutritionist it is 37.9 today. And the first thing she says to me is that I am probably not eligible because my BMI is under 40. But also I have acid reflux (which I have been on medications for 5 years and I do have asthma). Should I call the surgeon's office.

Just checking to see if anyone dropped their BMI pretty much before surgery. If so could you still have the surgery?

That's great!!!
