Turning the Leaf BEFORE surgery...

OK...Today I met with this very nice nutritionist at UMC Hospital and really enjoyed my interaction with her. "Stephanie" was pretty knowledgeable about the lapband diet, pre-op, surgery, etc. even though this is a fairly new surgery for UMC. I have already been doing some of the pre-pre-op things such as eating with a smaller plate, watching alcohol consumption, using a baby spoon, actually measuring portions. All of this has been such an eye opener for me. If I could do all these things all the time, I wouldn't even NEED the lapband, but although I consider myself somewhat of a "professional dieter" after 30 years of being obese, I can get it off, just can't seem to KEEP it off.

 

I am still feeling like luck is on my side and that although my Cigna has this stupid clause excluding CHN employees and their spouses (sheesh!), perhaps I will be that one that they just have to authorize. You know...Squeaky Wheel Syndrome!!!!:wub:
