  1. Insurance update

    · chell1957 · 10/20/2008 19:07

    :cursing:Here it is exactly 1 week until my Band-Day and still no call from my doctor telling me that my health insurance O.K.ed my surgery. I have done everything as asked and jumped through all the hopes. I am starting to get ticked off at the insurance company. I am thinking on calling them directly. Will update when I know something.

  2. Resturant Card

    Like a lot of us, I belong to more then 1 group. While surfing around my other group I found the following link. It is to show to the waitress at a restaurant in hope they will let u share a meal with a friend or order from the child's menu. For those of us who have been wishing for such a thing, here is the link:

    Now if we could get LapBandTalk to make their version of this it would be great!

    Well I am still here. Have not changed my mind yet. I finally go see a doctor on the 16th! Talked hubby into going with me. I want him to know what is going to happen to me and why. I have to admit I am a bit scared now. This is such a life changing event. I find myself when I am eating something, thinking to my self, I may never eat this again, how do I feel about it? Will I be able to force my self to chew slow and take small bits? I try that now and I don't feel very successful at it. I really have to make an effort to remember to do this. I get the feeling this will test everything I know about myself. :confused2:
  4. Hi everyone. I was tooling around Goggle and I was reading news when I happened onto this news story. It talks about people who have the surgery (Gastric) and how it effects their Diabetics.

    Here is the link/web address:
