    Don't do it! Think of all you have done to get to this point. Plus I heard of a lady who ate a piece of steak too soon and ended up in icu for 4 weeks!! You can do this we are all struggling! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  9. HELP! Freaking out - need honest feedback

    Eileen1978 replied to minervaxx6's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I just had my surgery yesterday and I'm home today. While in the hospital they gave me a medicine pump to use my self. Apparently in a 12 hour period I only used it 16 times, they said that was good. The burping is annoying especially when u can't get one out! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    How long should it take me to eat a popsicle? When I eat them I feel like I need to burp but can't. Just had surgery yesterday and don't want to throw up like others have. Any advice is much appreciated! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  21. Insurance Question, BCBSIL

    Eileen1978 replied to GregMedic51's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I'm sure it's because their busy with the end of the year and people needing to get things done but I'd give them a call. My Bariatric center actually called me before the BCBS nurse did to tell me I was approved. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Eileen1978 replied to GregMedic51's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    No I would give them a call but they could be backed up with it being the end of the year and all. Don't worry I'm sure you will get you approval! I'll say a prayer for ya! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
