Soooo...did more research and found that my surgeon participated in a bypass that caused a man to lose his legs...

I'm going to attend as well! Thanks!

My surgeon said my hiatal hernia was "huge" and that she would talk more about it at my next appointment. I already knew I had a hernia and it was probably big but now I'm concerned on what else she saw.

Ohhh noo!!! Sorry to hear that. Are you sure its safe to show up after you've ate the junk food? If it doesn't happen how about next week?

Loved your video!! Will watch again for the skin care info![emoji106] [emoji106]

Congrats!! So glad you're still attending groups etc. How was it tonight?

You can do it!!! Think about it this way, you've had those things before and it's time to give yourself a chance at something new for your body. One day you may be able to have it but just not today. One day at a time. You got this !!!

Oh wow! I'll look into the one in Arlington. When and which surgery did you have? Sorry, if I'm asking too much. I just had my EGD today and my psych eval is on the 11th so my date should be soon. Hoping I'm doing everything I should be for success.

When is your surgery and are you able to have one sensible meal per day?

Which group/location do you prefer? What is discussed

I live in south dallas (Ducanville). Arlington isn't that far just depends on the day of the week.

Thanks!! Are you in that group?

I don't know. I just paid my surgeon $200 for my EDG and $200 to the hospital. They have me on a payment plan to pay off the rest of the estimated bill. THEN billing at my surgeon office says once I am approved she will let me know what my pre surgery amout is. I'll have to pay that before my surgery date. She says approx 800-1000 out of pocket. By the way tge 2600 for EDG doesn't include the anesthesiologists cost...Lord help me

True. My max is 6k per year. I don't want to even pay 6k. Lord help me!!

The hospital is saying the estimated cost is 2600 after insurance. That seems like a lot!!

Hi!! Anyone in the area in a support group?

Hi Ladies!! Need a support group in my area. Anyone out there?

If you get denied how long do you have to wait to appeal or apply again?

But seriously, I don't have a significant other right now. If I did, I would seriously consider having another before the surgery.

Being optimistic hoping to find the love of my life...lol

Ahhhh..ok I will definitely look into this.

Interested in hearing if dating is easier, better or different after surgery and weight loss? Have you met a new boo? I'm all ears! ?[emoji41][emoji101][emoji101]

Hi Ladies!! I'm 37, single mom with a 9 year old son. I want to one day get married, and have another baby before 40 years old BUTTTT hoping to have surgery in June. Should I wait til I've had another child OR move forward??

I'm required to complete 90 days of the program which includes 2 nitrition appointments, psych eval, no weight gain among other requirements. What do you mean by "approved instution"? Do you mean the hospital must be approved?

Does anyone know or remember the cost of their EDG?
