Recommended Posts

I was hesitant to call my insurance because I didn't want to seem over anxious...but I have called everyday. I was trying to fight myself not to call today, but my nerves got the best of me. They said I was just APPROVED this morning. I am so happy. No, ECSTATIC! Well, let me go and call my docs office to schedule pre-op and surgery. Who dat girl gone have that surgery? Who dat? Who dat? Who dat girl that's gon lose those lbs? Who dat? Who dat?

I can't even think about ...and I am a teacher. Let me get focused! Bring it in, bring it in. Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!

LMAO!!! I love your post! It is clear that you are truly happy and I am happy for you! Welcome to the world of lapband. Keep reading this forum (particularly the post surgery threads) to get the "real deal" on the what/how/whens of lap band surgery. Don't let the negative stuff get to you, just take what you can use and leave the rest. There is a well spring of information here.

All the best to you on your journey! WOOOOOO WHOOOO! YAY jblady!!!

Congrats! :rolleyes: You sound exactly the way I did! I think I actually became obsessed with checking on line with the insurance company and then calling over and over since the "Unapproved" me 3 times. Just paperwork technicalities though. Like said earlier, REALLY take time to learn the post-op. I was so swept up in pre-op questions and insurance, I didn't. LET ME TELL YA!!! I was just banded Friday the 21st, I wish I had. It's different than what I expected. Good Luck on your Journey! Keep us all posted!

Congratulations!!! I'm so excited for you. I know waiting for the insurance approval is the worst!

Now for the easy part! The surgery. I can see you now...dancing down the hallway into the operating room!

He gonna have to knock you out to get you quiet! LOL

You'll breeze right through it with the great attitude that you have!

Keep your eye on the prize, girl! Good luck to you!!

Chris

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
