Do you ever feel...
Angie74 replied to Lindsey Skinner Abbott's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I felt that way in the beginning, but had to be honest with myself.....I've been trying on and off for years, losing some regaining more...all types of diet plans, diet dr's, and diet pills. Changed the way I ate but never fully successful. Tried gyms, personal training, Zumba etc...after my divorce, my discipline was pretty much shot, so in order for me to be successful I had to admit to myself that I needed help and this is my help. Some people don't agree with my decision , but I don't agree with their decisions on what they drink, or who they date or smoking cigarettes...but it's their life, their lungs, their heart....this is my life, my lungs, and my heart and no one's going go take care of me but me. So I no longer feel that way. I'm at peace with the decision and in 3 weeks I'll be moving forward to a new life Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk -

wow. I think I answered about 30 common sense questions and then sat down and had a chat with the psych dr asking me a few more, but once again ...all common sense stuff that a normal person should have no problem passing...luckily I don't have to do a part 2, he passed me today Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk

I have never heard of a doctor giving you weight loss pills prior to weight loss surgery either unless you have no record of attempted weight loss they may need to do this to show the insurance company that you have tried XY and Z to lose weight and you haven't been fully successful Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk A lot of insurance companies want to see that you have tried other ways to lose weight before they will approve you for the weight loss surgery Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk

So I had the psych evaluation and met with the Nurse today, so far so good. I'm getting cleared. But the hospital won't let me schedule a surgery date until I take my final class on Feb 17 Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk

Oh and glad to know my favorite foods aren't gone forever, I think I was going to binge eat for the first time like a chipmunk saving for the winter. I don't want to go back to my old eating habits but I certainly want to be able to have a glass or sip of wine occasionally, a taste of ice cream once in a while...little things

awww good deal Shelly thanks a bunch for that. I just found out that even though I went through my Dr and Psych, I still have to go through the nurse Practitioner and Psych evaluation at the hospital. Luckily their still able to keep me on for my original appt tomorrow morning at 730 a.m. Then the hospital requires you to take life skill classes which means I will be looking at surgery sometime in March instead of February. This gives me a little more time to prepare, buy the things I need for the hospital stay and after. I cant believe all of these steps but now I know why ...big life change. I just can't wait for March to get here !

I got the number and I can't wait to give them a call and get an approval and a date! !

I'm with Aetna too and I think because I didn't go the traditional route I'm just on edge. So once you were approved, you got your surgery date right away? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk
