I am so glad that there are other people that can relate to my same problem. I waited 7 weeks for my first fill and my Dr. makes you wait 6 weeks in between fills. He added 3.5 ccs on my first fill and I have no restriction. I have been trying to do this on my own by just walking away in the middle of meals. I have been exercising very hard every day, and not drinking with my meals. I could have been doing all of this on my own. I don't understand why they make you wait so long.

So most places accept it then?

Where do you get Isopure Protein Drinks?

I also had my surgery on 7/15 and am having the same problems. I feel no restriction but am just trying to be mentally strong on what and how much I eat. I am on soft foods. Today I had eggs in the morning, chicken salad for lunch and a Protein Shake for dinner. I am also working out every day which is making me feel a lot better!

That is so wierd that all of these are different. I was just two days clear liquids, five days full liquids, after 1 week soft food, and introduce solid foods two weeks after surgery. That is scary these are all so different!

I was denied also and just would not take no for an answer. I went to the qualifying supervisor and had her review it. I think it is all about who gets a hold of your file. Just drive them crazy, that is what I did! Banded last week!

I did not have any that I was aware of either, until I had a sleep study and found out I had Sleep Apnea. That is what got me approved. You never know!

I was banded by Schuster on 7/15/08. I was approved by Anthem but the whole process took about 3 months. Good luck!
