Weight gain during 6 month pre-op period
DanieHall reacted to SusieQ2019 for a post in a topic
I have Aetna and I read somewhere here that they denied some who gained weight. My doctor did not say anything about loosing but the nurse was happy that I lost 1lb in my last vist but so far I've lost 5lbs. My insurance ask for 4 doctors visit and 3 nutritionist visit. I am keeping it on the safe side to at least loose a few lbs. Check with your surgeon to be sure. -

What will summer look like
StarFlower87 reacted to GradyCat for a post in a topic
I'm comparing a cruise photo of me 4 months ago (a month pre-op) to now and can tell a big difference even at 25 pounds lost. I felt more confident in a bathing suit this time. -

What will summer look like
StarFlower87 reacted to DeeberLee for a post in a topic
I have a favorite picture taken 2 years ago while on vacation in Chicago. It's a picture with my sisters. I was at my heaviest of 232 lbs.. I'm going back to Chicago this summer 73 lbs. lighter. I'm not dreading having my picture taken this time with my sisters! -

October 2018 Sleever - Pictures Update - LOST OVER 100LBS!

You look amazing and have some gorgeous curves. I hate the cost of Spanx so I rarely buy the brand name. But Spanx does make a "generic" brand for Target and Walmart. Take a look at the areas you are most worried about and the styles and go from there. They have camisoles with tummy control as well as high-waisted briefs. -

1 pointSlider foods are foods that turn to mush or liquid in your mouth:- Crackers Chips Popcorn candy Chocolate Cake Highly processed foods etc They are high calorie, easy to overeat and have no effect on your hunger levels. Non sliders are foods that are still relatively solid when they get to your stomach Meat,fish,chicken,vegetables They are full of nutrients and fill you up.
