I would think that's up to insurance. I'm a physician assistant and they always count my visits for weigh-in and dietary counseling....as long as the APN documented it right... HW 312, pre-op (lap-band) 294, pre-op (RNY) 255, surgery date 2/11/13, goal weight 154, current weight 234.8

She denies all allegations HW 312, pre-op (lap-band) 294, pre-op (RNY) 255, surgery date 2/11/13, goal weight 154, current weight 234.8

No, but she's an exercise fiend. She's 62, dad is 65, they're both retired and 4-5 days a week they go to the gym for about an hour and a half. She eats on a small plate, gets full easily...she's done it all correctly. She's not tiny (a size 12-14) but she's also not built tiny, we got good German genes! She is a kidney failure patient and on the transplant list, she had kidney issues prior to gaining weight. The told her when she was pregnant with me (I'm 39) that she wouldn't live to 40.....so yeah, she's pretty fabulous!!!!

Oh the hottie and I have a little thing going but he had a hellish marriage as well and has a lot of baggage....for now we spend time together all the time with the boys and occasional grown up nights when we're both child free(RARE!!!) it's an interesting relationship but working for now!

I turn 40 exactly a month from today . So wanted my RNY DONE before I hit the big 4-0 so I can enter my next decade happier and healthier . Glad it is done and over!!!! My son is 8, I've been divorced since he was an infant (married a very not nice guy who decided to start hitting me, stealing, and cheating on me once I got pregnant) so it's just the boy and I and I REALLY want him to get to do the boy stuff, even if it means mom is out freezing her butt off camping on march 1st! It's actually a lot of fun... Mostly (plus I have the major hots for his BFFs dad so I'm sucking up every second of him helping me with stuff right now...he's a hottie!!!!)

My wild Cub Scout commitment are complete until next weekends camp out! Actually my kiddo and his BFFs dad have agreed to do all my heavy lifting and such so basically i'll be doing mild hiking (we have some out of shape kiddos so it won't be too stressful physically) and cooking....other than the potential for freezing to death in a tent (taking the electric blanket!!) I think I'll be fine I'm so used to doing everything!!!! I really am scaling back while I'm recovering, but this weekends banquet was a big deal and I was second in command....

My mom is 30 years post gastric bypass (at that time known as stomach stapling). She called this morning and last night, for the first time since she had her surgery,she got stuck on a food and had the whole chest pain, nausea, misery...30 years later! She was shredding carrots for slaw and ate a hunk of carrot and thinks she just didn't chew as much as usual (all is well today, scared the crud out of her though!!)

Yes ma'am!!!!!!

One more pound down, since I'm back at work I'm averaging 1 pound every 2 days. Woohoo! Still would love one of those 10 pound losses I keep hearing about! . So very blessed and lucky that other than my own stupidity kicking my butt I've been complication free to this point. All of you who are having problems are in my thoughts and prayers.
