Yes! We're in the same boat for dinner. We eat out on occasion, too, but when I'm at home, I do well. Please don't say the "M" word, I had to be sent to Mickey D, rehab for their delicious coffee, apple and strawberry cream pie, and butter biscuits. Lol! As far as Water, I drink between 64 and 72 oz a day and it doesn't help with snacking all the time, but some times it does. ???? I'm 36 BTW. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using the BariatricPal App

Thank you so much. I'm glad I'm not alone with this PCOS stuff. ????. I definitely want the surgery, but it's tough to cook for them and eat my food. Wondering if I should do love carb for the whole family. ????. I guess it wouldn't hurt. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using the BariatricPal App

So, I just found out that the nutritional visits are for us to lose weight. But, can you be denied if you don't lose weight or if you gain weight? True Results won't take me until I have a 43 BMI?! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using the BariatricPal App

That's awesome. Insurance companies can be slow. Praying your approval comes through soon. I have BCBS of Michigan through my employer in GA. I hear it may take a few weeks for them to process. Rooting for you. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using the BariatricPal App

Hi there, I'm going through True Results in Atlanta and it seems like I was to wait until my BMI goes up a little above 40 because they claim the insurance company will kick me off the program if I lose weight. I'm still in the early stages. But, I'm being patient so far. From what I've heard, they have been pretty good about submitting paperwork on time.

Hi everyone, I am super new to this forum and the process of weight loss surgery. I went to two different facilities in Atlanta, GA. True Results and Johns Creek Surgery. Both seemed great, and both are telling me that I don't have any co-morbidities. I am 5'4 and weigh 230 lbs. They said my BMI is not high enough to start the nutritional process if I use my insurance. I must wait until I get around 237 or 240 lbs. Is this right? So, in the meantime, I am exercising 5 days a week and now I'm attempting to eat healthy. Can I go on a high Protein diet while I wait to start the nutritional appointments? And, I've been exercising for 4 weeks straight and the scale is consistently going up since the end of last year. I'm a severe sweet eater and I have been working to control these urges by eating meat, eggs, Protein shakes, and fruit. Your help is appreciated...???? Sent from my DL1008M using the BariatricPal App
