Hi Sunny, Nice to see someone else from Nebraska. I am still in the insurance phase. I plan on having my done either at Creighton or at UNMC here in Omaha. I talked to my insurace company and they still have not recieved my pre-auth paperwork yet. UNMC tells me check by in two weeks and if BC/BS still doesn't have it, then they will resend it. Why can't they just do it now? I guess after thinking about doing WLS for about 8 months, including the hours spent researching, I can wait a few more weeks. I just want to get things started. Hope to "hear" from ya soon,

When you talk about meat tenderizer, are you talking about true meat tenderizer like Lowery, or is this something else? Also, what does it do?

Happy to hear that you are ok.

I thought about this while drinking a glass of ice water yesterday and this morning while drinking hot tea, can I still have hot or really cold food/drink post-band? Does this bother anyone?

Good luck.

So, small spoons, forks, plates and cups. Don't drink at meals, but how soon after would it be okay? Exercise, cut fat, eat more protein, no carbonated or caffeinated drinks, and drink 64 oz of water a day. WOW! I get started, after this cup of coffee, LOL. That is going to be another hard one. I like my coffee in the morning, but nothing taste as good as thin is going to feel.

Thank you for the help. Not drinking with a meal is going to be a hard one to quit so I better start now. Again, thank you.
