    ReadyforChangeChan got a reaction from XYZXYZXYZ1955 in Family having pizza tonight!!   
    Yes pizza is loved lol. But i dont forsee me trying any for a very long time-possibly never again-well at least not in the standard form. I just keep telling myself i had surgery for a reason and pizza is one of them! Le sigh-plan to leave all those bad habits behind.

    i had 4 weeks off-and still came back to work pretty tired. But realistically I could have gone back after two and just dealt with it.

    I think it's like when you plan a big party, or a wedding. You spend a year planning and prepping and getting excited about the big day, and then the big day happens, and the next morning you wake up and say, "now what?" We plan so much for surgery, that once it happens, we don't have anything to fixate on any more. After surgery, you're just waiting... waiting to heal, waiting to feel better, waiting for the number on the scale to go down.
    i don't have any advice, but I understand how you're feeling. I've started planning a vacation that we are going to take in a few months, just to give me something else to be thinking about.

    ReadyforChangeChan got a reaction from FluffyChix in Gaining a Couple of Pounds Between Doctor's Appts During Pre-Surgery Phase   
    My insurance didnt care about weight gain between appts but between your initial weight and final weight before submitting you could not show a gain-ie no net gain. Be sure you know what your ins stance is. Aetna is who i have and they would have denied coverage.

    Thats terrible. My question is how would ins know your weight on day of surgery to deny you. Perhaps call your ins to be sure that this is there policy. Most go by your weight on the approval forms and dont request a new weight after.

    Ah I see-im not on solids yet but the carbs would probably turn my away. Seems like alot unless its being used as a full Meal Replacement but then again when i can eat idk if i will be up for losing a meal to the bar. I have seen some great reviews on the flavors though-tempting!

    Wow. I have only been here since early July but i see the same people starting fights or being annoying on lots of posts. I just ignore them cause once you acknowledge their nonsense they get a kick out of it.

    Dont think is has anything to do with experience at all-that doesnt even make sense to me. I think the two week pre op diet i had-liquids only-prepared me for what came after surgery. Not being able to have any solids-by the time i had surgery it didnt affect me at all. Also think it prepares you to eat to live and not live to eat.

    Well, My Dr. Requires a one week, with the last day a clear liquid. He is the doctor that teaches all the areas drs how to do these procedures. I disagree that it has to do with an inexperienced Dr. I think the reason they do this is to get you used to the idea of not being able to eat solid foods for a while, as well as to change your eating habits entirely so that you do not damage your new stomach. Now, one week before will help the liver shrinkage, but if its a multi week, maybe its to teach better behaviors........

    ReadyforChangeChan got a reaction from Sosewsue61 in weight gain during 6 month weigh-in period   
    You should read up on your insurances policies. My insurance didnt allow a net gain from start to finish of the supervised diet. You had to weigh less or the same come the end-not even a pound heavier or insurance would not approve. Not sure if your self pay then i guess it would be up to your doctor and their rules.
