    Urban Myth or Truth???

    At my consent visit, the nurse gave me a packet of information and in this packet was a card. On one side there is emergency information and on the other side it states: "Dear Restaurateur: The person whose name is on this card has had a special surgical proedure that restricts food volume to approximately one tenth of normal adult consumption. We would greatly appreciate if this persons meal can be portioned and purchased at a reduced, senior or child price. We thank you for your cooperation and understanding." The nurse said that, in my area, there are many restaurants that will honor the request.
  4. I've been on a bit of a roller coaster this last month. First the insurance was going to pay but I was going to have to do the six month doctor supervised nutrition and exercise program. Then I found out that my company directly excludes bariatric surgery...I was SO BUMMED! My hubby and I decided to self pay and man! things are happening so fast! I went for my psych eval yesterday and met with my surgeon. I'm having pre-operative tests done Thursday and my surgery has been scheduled for August 22!
  5. Hello, I'm just beginning my journey to a thinner me. :thumbup: I attended the orientation class yesterday and am currently waiting to find out what my insurance company is going to do. I'm both excited and scared at the same time.
