Thank you so much for the info! I feel like I need to start over... I stink at picking nice healthy meals Any suggestions on food choices?

I havent lost a single pound since Ive had the surgery I havent been able to exercise due to a foot injury but I will be able to start back up soon. I've had 2 fills so far. I dont feel full but food gets stuck a few times a week, usually bread. Does that mean Im not chewing enough or my band is too tight? If it was too tight I wouldnt be hungry all the time. Im just disappointed Does drinking a lot of water make a big difference? I dont usually drink, it's so blah!

I know there are a lot of weight loss tracker/food trackers out there. Is there one that you suggest I use? The more tools I have the better! Thanks!

Right now I'm 5'2 and 222 pounds (40.6 bmi) However, I did not always weigh this much. This is actually my highest weight. Over the past 5 years I have weighed between 160-220. I gained most of the weight during my pregnancy a year ago. My weight has always gone up and down but stayed pretty steady at 185. Is there a good chance I will be denied because I was not always 35+ bmi? I really dont want to pay $500 for my psych eval if they are not gonna approve me. Any thoughts? Thanks

Thanks so much! I added a bunch to my list

I have my inital appointment on Tuesday and I made a list of questions to ask but I know I'n missing some. What questions do you suggest I ask? Any help would be appreciated thanks

Do you think you can send me an email w/ the questions to ask? Id really appreciate it! Thanks

Yay!!! Congrats! I will be there that day for my inital appointment How much time do you think you will be off from work?

Thanks! my email is tammyhink@hotmail.com

What insurance do you have? I have aetna. Im looikng to get it done in June. I'm going to Disney at the end of May and Idk how good would be for me to get it done a few weeks before Disney. Can you PM me a list of the things he wants done? I wonder if I get any of them done already. Thanks

Oh I hope that's the same for me! So are you doing the 3 mo program? I read somewhere that there is a free for the fit mart and other program that he requires you to go to. I read it used to be $1700 but is now $300? I have my appointment in 3 weeks. How far along are you in the process?

To everyone that has used him are there any "hidden" fees for the 2 programs that he requires you to use? thanks

Thanks for all the info :smile2: Im going to take my insurance requirements to my Dr and review them with her. I guess its a start thanks

Are you expected to lose weight on the 3 mo diet? Who weighs you, PCP or surgeon?

You got approved before the 90 days? Did you not have to do the 90 day diet? thanks
