Even though I am only four weeks out, I rarely get heartburn . It all depends if I eat something that is too spicy for too much tomato sauce in my case. Also, the surgeon usually fixes a hiatal hernia while he's in there . I had a small hiatal hernia That was repaired. No more heartburn are used to get in the past, and I'm not taking any heartburn medicine at all. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

I too suffer from the same bad habits of eating way too fast. My nutritionalists suggesting using my left hand, as I am right handed, and I will try this tonight. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

I was a gallon a day coke zero addict for five years. I swapped, per my nutritionist advice, to Crystal light lemonade with great success. He said the tart flavor satisfies the "bite" of coke zero I the tongue. So far so good Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

The plot thickens.... my wife looked at my employers coverage paperwork, and Cigna is the administrator. My employer, a very large company, self insures. According to all of the documents, i should qualify without a doubt. Just more hoops to jump through lol Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

Hello all, I'm still trying to get a straight answer from Cigna, and my doctor's office has been wonderful in assisting me.... Last week I got a letter requesting more medical info for my VSG procedure. The doctor promptly replied. Today I get a denial letter. Actually, it reads "The employee must have 2 years of continuous service with the company for coverage to be available" I've been with my company 25 years, Cigna only since 01/2015.…...I'm trying to find out what "2 years of service" they mean.... With my company or with Cigna. Very ambiguous. If they mean with Cigna, what are the odds they'd "bend the rules" 4 months early? I was scheduled for mid August surgery. Thanks!
