    lauratexas replied to Tracyde730's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
    Hi, I am also new to this and is scared like a rat lol. I am in Beaumont Texas and I have had my first consultation with a Dr. Humble. I went to the seminar and just mailed back my packet to the Bariatric Center in Beaumont. I am 245 BMI was 40. I have United Health Care and was told it was covered. How long of a wait do I have now? And what happens next? I have a couple of concerns. Is food hard to go down? Will I be able to eat at restaraunts but just watch what I eat? And what about drinking a couple of beers, Is that a no no?
