I'm a medic. I had to tell my boss and my shift. I'm scared of dumping and lifting when I get back, I need them to know what's going on incase I ever become a patient. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Dr. Patel in San Antonio, Tx is 18000. I'm doing cash price because insurance wouldn't cover. However, they found a hiatal hernia and some other things on my EGD study so insurance should cover half or more. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Did you have the VSG? 100lbs in 6 months is amazing! Congratulations! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Found this on Pinterest, I'm pre op and also looking for some stats. I know everyone is different, but it's nice to dream ???? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I work EMS. I told my partners and my boss. If something happened to me while I'm at work after surgery, I want them to have a clue about what it could be related to. They also know that I will need their help lifting and moving after surgery. Also, because we work in healthcare, they're going to figure it out eventually. We've been fat. Suddenly we get thin? Do we have TB? Maybe a tapeworm??? Lol! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Y'all all look amazing! And more importantly than that, y'all look happy and healthy! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Buffleheads, I probably shouldn't be laughing, but I am!! Thanks for the insight! I'll keep that in mind, I have a fine crop of facial hair already! Thanks ladies! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Did anyone start taking Vitamins pre-op? If so, which ones? I'm worried about losing mass quantities of hair since I'm already a shedder and I've got thin Caucasian hair. (shakes first) I've read that Biotin and Iron really helped out a lot of people. Suggestions? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thanks so much for your input Grammy! Thank you Ryan, that's what I wanted to hear, I'm sure that I'll be losing a ton of muscle mass over 6 weeks. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Right on. Good luck on your journey! Do you feel like your patient care will improve after your weight loss? I'm excited to be able to give my patients my 100% and not have to sweat and huff and puff! Lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm self pay as well. Insurance will cover my hernia repair which should leave me at about 7k. I'm in TX. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Fingers crossed, I'll be sleeved in April! I currently work at a 911 service as a medic and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't terrified about lifting when I return to work. Doc says I should be good to go in 4-6 weeks, but I'm just fearful about something happening when I'm doing something really strenuous. Anyone? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
