stress too will cause you to lose hair... take vitamins and de-stress. Or call your Dr.

I am with you all. I did my final weigh in this week 3/2 and just hear about an hour ago that I got the approval which I didn't think would happen for 2 - 3 weeks. I am so happy so now I have to get my official letter and make my consult appointment. Good luck to ALL of us.

Congratulations! I am hoping to be there someday too with a success story.

:rose: I have seen on here that most Dr.s do not recoommend soda after LB surgery because of the carbination. Does anybody know if leaving a soda out and becoming flat ok to drink? I often will open a soda then put it in the refrigerator to the next day and drink it. Just curious about insight on this. Thanks!

As part of the "I can change" program I had to lose 5% of my body weight before being approved by the insurance company to have the surgery.

I am not sure, I will give it one more week then call the insurance and my sponsor to see the options. Suborn pounds :thumbup:

I am Sissy from IL and have been part of the "I can change" program through my insurance company as a prerequisit to having LB surgery. I do my final 6 month weigh in on Mar 2. I still have a couple pounds to lose and I am getting a bit nervous over those couple pounds not coming off in time. Hopefully, sometime in April I will have my surgery.
