  3. Walter.Sobchak's answer is spot on. So in short, no, your insurance company cannot tell your employer what (if any) procedures you had done. That is, as long as you do not work for a health insurance company...

  10. That's great T.Rene! Makes it a little easier for those of us yet to go under the knife this week. I hope everything continues to go well for you. It definitely seems you've succeeded in one of the hardest parts, getting your mind adjusted to your new life. All the best to you!

  17. I did tons and tons of research before I choose my surgeon (as I'm sure everyone else did, too!) I finally decided on going with BeLiteWeight after speaking with my representative, Jessica, and about 10 previous patients (I was supplied with a list of nearly a 100 previous patients who had volunteered to speak and share their experiences). Additionally, I liked the fact that my entire 4 day stay will be in their hospital. I know plenty of people here have done really well with having their operation and then moving into a 5-star hotel - which is great for them. That said, I've had major spinal surgery and donated a kidney to my sister 4yrs ago, so I felt it was important to have a full medical team available in the unlikely event their were complications.
  18. Darn. I'll also be in Mexico, but in Juarez with Drs. Jose Rodriguez-Villarreal & Elmo Aramburo. Regardless, best of luck to you!
  19. Hi LinzLou22 - I'm also the 12th. Where are you having your surgery done?

  25. I love Hint - exactly as the label says, it has a hint of flavour, without tasting like bubble gum
  26. Wow - such an inspiration! Keep on - keeping on!
  27. Just sent my request to join the FB group - looks like we need to get some more men in here!
  28. Best of luck to you this weekend! Do keep us posted when you are up and about. I'm also working with Jessica at BeLiteWeight and am scheduled for May 12th. Like you, have read many glowing reviews (and 1 negative one that I asked about) - but firsthand knowledge is priceless. Safe travels!
  29. <draws back the curtain> Greetings, salutations, and all that Jazz! I'm pre-op at the moment, so let me get back to you in 6 months to a year
  30. Good luck Imlosingit! Mine is May 12th - and thankfully (I guess) I only have to do a high protein / low carb diet for the week before.

  32. Hi chucklecheeks! Not in the UK at the moment, but I have dual citizenship and spent the last 15yrs in London. Does that count? Where in the UK are you? Believe you me, I can definitely relate to difficulty finding clothes, unkind glances on the High Street, etc... etc... If you need a friends to chat with, here for you. I'm being sleeved in the Mexico on May 12th, so pre-op for a few more weeks.
  33. Such an inspiration - you look incredible. Love your beaming smile in your new pics - you truly look so very happy! 18 days and counting to my surgery. It's such a comfort and boost to see those of you on the other side doing so well!
