I'm working through my weightloss classes now at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles - anyone have their WLS at Cedars? Curious to hear if so what your experience was like.

I had my surgery at Cedars in May, 2014. I'm happy to answer any questions you have. It's a great program!

Awesome! I’ve been trying to get scheduled all week for whatever the next hoop is I need to jump through with no luck. Kaiser is Slow. Are you going through insurance?

I had my surgery at Kaiser West LA on June 22. Took my Options classes at Panorama City. Let me know if you have any questions!

Hi. I’m just starting the process with Kaiser at the sunset office. I did all my blood work last week and am waiting to be scheduled for classes. At what point in the process did you know if Kaiser would cover it? My BMI was almost 41 when I went to my first appointment. I have no idea what’s supposed to happen next and I’ve been having a lot of trouble trying to schedule classes.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
