Starting up again...



Recommended Posts

Well, I'm starting up again. Last year I was pre-approved by my insurance all I lacked was the psych eval and then we found out I was preggers.... So 7 Months after having the baby I'm starting the whole process again. I have to go to the seminar and turn in my paperwork again and try to get approved again with the insurance company. I'm hoping that it will go faster this time since I was approved last year. I am so ready to get the weight of having 3 kids off me ( plus those cheeseburgers I 've eaten over the past 20 years) I have my first Seminar on the 15th of Jan. I'm really hoping to be banded by this time next year if not sooner...

Congratulations on the new baby!

Hopefully things will go well with insurance and you will be banded in no time. Keep us posted.

Thank you :tongue2: I'm hoping that it won't take very long but we all know that insurance companies tend to drag their feet.

Congrats on the new baby! I was pre-approved last June and then had a major illness which prevented me from getting banded. When I called my surgeon's office to schedule my surgery after my illness, they contacted the insurance company for me and I was re-approved in a matter of DAYS, not weeks. Good luck and I hope your re-approval goes as quickly as mine did. I have my surgery scheduled for 1-27-09 and start the pre-surgery diet tomorrow. I'm excited.

      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!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
