Improved health, less medication and health issues are resolved. Shop for a new company with better rates. I had no problem mentioning I was looking for better rates to my long-standing insurance company. All the sudden they wanted to try to compete for my business. They did not make the cut. lol

You’re doing great! You don’t need hot dogs or Mountain Dew. You will absolutely feel SO SICK if you do

3 week stall for me! That's when I realized the lack of sleep I was getting from all the stress I was under. Finally got a full 7 hours and the scale started to move again.

Hmmm i never thought of the sleep aspect of this thank you!!!

I am a retired insurance agent. Most companies require 1 year from date of surgery, but I have had several during my careeer that we requested a change in rating and they were approved and out underwriting was relatively strict.

It really does make a difference post surgery, you go from being hungry like the wolf to being in control. Yes you might still get hungry. but it will be controllable. I now look at foods as Maybe I will taste a little of that, but you won't have the panic that you have to eat something before someone else gets it. And truly there are many foods, I can take a teeny taste and I say" Why did I used to eat that? It does not taste good enough to cheat with! " And you will find you don't have the desire to cheat, because in the long run it just isn't worth it. And since you have so little room inside, there is no room for junk, so you do want to eat the things that are vitamin rich and good for you! I know of what I speak, I was a Food Sinner for years and years and years, so when I saw the light, had a Come to Jesus moment, whatever title you feel comfortable with, I had a fair amount of BlubberWeight to get rid of, but I am now a 120 pounds lighter than my highest weight, lost 77 since surgery, yeah me , the tried every diet known to modern man, some of them siily, but I was grasping at straws, it really works even if you're 73 like me! My natural Basal Metabolic rate is akin to a seasick snail but it is working for me too. Oh occasionally I do get a little jealous of the losses of the young ones, but then I remember Life gave me a different answer sheet to what they were given, as long as I answer mine correctly I can't go wrong either!

I had a questionnaire and I’m sure she had access to my medical records. However, it was just a 50 minute 1:1 therapy session and then she said I need a letter from my psychiatrist to say he treats me and will continue to treat me. That was kind of ridiculous since insurance sees that I take my meds and see him monthly 🙄

I had my sleeve surgery in 2013. Eating anything is a problem to this day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
