Bailey Bariatrics in Owasso



Recommended Posts

I was self pay and I had the sleeve done. They were able to get my insurance company to cover the pre surgical testing that is required. I paid about $17,000 and that covered the surgery, the Drs, one night in the hospital. Basically the 2 days in the hospital, the $17,000 covered it. But if anything extra is needed like additional tests, additional doctors, additional time in the hospital, etc then they will bill your insurance first, and you are responsible for the rest.

How's everyone doing? I've been very bad the last few weeks and not eating what I should be eating. His is so much harder than I had imagined. Anyone else having difficulty eating right? Anyone have any suggestions or will give me a kick in the ass for being stupid?? I didn't go through all of this to start making poor choices and get fat again. ????

Ugh, I've been struggling too. I've been stuck at the same weight for about a month, which makes it even harder to stay motivated to eat right! Starting today, I'm getting back to basics - only focusing on Protein and no carbs! We can do this!

Please take advantage of the first 6 months after surgery when weight loss is the most, it really does slow down after that. If your having problems in the first 6 months, take a step back, think about why you did this, what you want out of this, and make the changes you and only you have to make, to make it work. Yes, we can do this!! I've got 10 lbs to go to lose 100 total, definitely want to get there before my 1 year in Sept.

Mine is the 13th too if it’s still happening. Who is your surgeon? And how are you doing on your two week diet?

I’m not recent, I had surgery 3/4/15 but if you have any questions, I’ll answer them.

Ty so much. Right now the diet before hand is killing me and my surgery might be canceled because I messed up. Will find out Monday.

Twins! My diet is going ok. I’ve slipped a little bit with a few bites. I’m with Dr. Cole. Are you second guessing having surgery?

I’m with him as well mine is supposed to be at 6am. No not all but I really cheated and I called the dr office and talked to the nurse this afternoon. I explained what happened and she said she didn’t know if he would still accept that and let the surgery happen

I don’t have a surgery time scheduled yet, they said they would call the day before to let me know what time. I do preop testing on Monday.

I hope he still lets the surgery happen, for your sake. Have you gained weight ? I haven’t lost but a couple pounds and I’m scared they will think I haven’t being following the diet. If you ever need to talk or a distraction from this awful preop diet, feel free to message me.

My prep as long as it is still happening is Tuesday at 9.

They gave me the time early since we don’t live in Owasso.

Ty I appreciate it same for you too I’m always on here since I found this site a few days ago.

We have the strictest diet I have found in comparison to others.

I have actually lost 20lbs even with my big slide.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
