Congrats on being banded. Im glad you are feeling better than what you did. Did your dr. write a letter in your behalf for Insurance Co. or did he just sign off saying that he was Ok with you having the surgery. Im curious because I have an appointment with my primary dr. on the 9th of July.

Thank you for your help!

no, she just typed a note saying that I was cleared for surgery. I was a self pay, so I don't know what the insurance company requires.

I am so happy for you! My date is 8/15/07. I hope time goes by quick. How long are you on liquids? What size band did you get? Well enough questions for now I am sure you have plenty of your own.

I started the Clear Liquids the day before surgery and will move to full liquids tomorrow. Which means I get to have yogurt, pudding etc. Yeah.. I have to say I have not been hungry at all! I got the new ap band, I don't know what size I will find out next week when I go in for my Post op.

Your date is fast approaching. I am so happy for you! I hope your recovery goes as well as mine has. I actually drove this morning.

      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! 😞
