  1. Ok, so I found out my insurance doesn't cover nutritionist visits which i think is complete bullshit as I'm a gastric bypass patient who is 13 weeks pregnant. Anyways, I want to know if anyone has found a dietitian that offers detailed meal plans for pregnant WLS mommies. Maybe you have those saved and can help a girl out? More than willing to pay for a detailed meal plan. I'm the type of person that needs examples and just telling me "Oh you need 65 grams of carbs a day" will not cut it. I like to know what to buy at the store, recipes, etc. Anyways, if any mommies out there used a specific meal/recipe plan and their babies were big and healthy please let me know!!! I don't mind paying for a good meal plan that is specific to us. Thanks!!
  2. Hey guys im a little concerned here. So im 1 week post op and im able to drink 8oz of broth within 30 minutes... granted i feel really full but im concerned that maybe this is too fast? 3 days post op i was only able to drink 1 to 2 oz 4-5 days post op i was able to drink 4oz Now i can drink 7 to 8 oz Anyone experienced anything similiar? I know its different for everyone
  3. So im 2 dsys post op with the bypass; still in the hospital. Evem if i take two sips of water i tend to throw up foamies. Dr said im just one of the unlucky ones that my stomsch swelled and possibly not letting anything through. Any one with a similar experience?
  4. Guys i need some help. I have tried getting more specific answer from UHC and they literally only spit out the policy at me verbatim. My policy states i need 6 months minimum before surgery for dr visits and/or weight loss logs from a structured program. So my question is, how far back in my medical history can i go to get 6 months? Also, it says and/or weight loss logs so does that mean i can getapproved on 4 months dr visits and 2 months worth of weight loss logs? Ive gotten no help in clarification from UHC and the bariatric coordinator at my surgeon is hell bent on 6 straight months of dr visits and she dont wanna hear anything about my weight loss logs or my gym check ins my coworker under the same policy got hers approvedby her just logging 6 months without dr intervention! Thoughts? Suggestions? Anyone had similiar experience with the coordinator at ATL Bariatric Surgery - Dr. Hart?
