Surgery Date



Recommended Posts

I have a surgery date of August 23rd, hopefully all will go well on the financing portion. The majority will be covered by insurance that will pay for the Hernia Repair and I have to take care of the lap band portion. True Results is supposed to let me finance that portion at $266.42 for two years, if not then I may have to delay until January and up my FSA. Fingers crossed!

It is well worth the investment.

It truly is, the weight has dominated too much of my life. I'm ready to move on to new things and not always have this wearing on me. Tired of the diet roller coaster, I've gone from my highest of 217 and managed to get myself down to 156 only to go back up to 195! All the while running at least 3-4 times per week. I finished two half marathons last year and gained weight while training for them! My problem is food and Portion Control, I need help getting a handle on it.

I truly believe this is my chance and I'm taking it, taking back my life!

In Sept I will have Health plus Medicare Advantage insurance. I found a surgeon that excepts it. Im going to a lap band seminar in Sept. Hoping I dont get denied. My insurance will pay 80% and I pay 20%. I also feel its my last chance. Has anyone else had this insurance?

All is set with my surgery and my portion will definitely be financed through True Results, now to start getting ready for my surgery date and following the pre-surgery diet to the letter. I want this to be a success story. :) I feel like August 23rd will be my second birthday, a new beginning!!

      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! 😞
