Same thing happened to me at my support group meeting!!! I just kind of sat and said different strokes for different folks!! Plus, I guess everyone has to feel stronge about their own decision..) -
Anyone else have abnormal EKG?
MrsRobinson replied to Heather B.'s topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I also had an abnormal ECG and it was followed the next day with a stress and nuclear test...Come to find out it was that fact that I am so top heavy they said it can cause a abnormal reading... -

Hi, Rosann, My name is Lisa Marie Robinson. I am 42 and have a 21 year old daughter and 4 year old twins (boy/girl). My surgery is on Dec 6th, so we are kind of in the same boat. You mentioned that you have see alot of negative post, I agree with you..It make me kind of second guess myself alittle...I do think my surgeon is right..You have people that drink their calories and then see no weight loss that is a given..I also asked about device failure he said 20% and said that on these sites it is such a consolidated group that you are bound to hear about the bad stuff too! I am super active but, as I get older it seems i just keep gaining weight...Anyway, good luck!!! Lisa -

Hello, My surgery date is Dec 6th..I went to a support group of about 50 people and I was the only lapbander in the bunch. When the others found out I was having lapband they proceded to tell me that I don't want it and that I was gastric bypass...One hell of a support group!! Anyway, good thing I know what I want..I just know that with any surgery there can be complications and you only hear about the ones that go wrong..It is nice to be on a site that gives the good and the bad!! -
Has anyone Tummy Tuck before Lapband
MrsRobinson replied to thinnerS's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did about 6 years ago and my docter said it would not be a problem for me either...The funny thing is I kind a feel like a stuffed sausage with all this weight on me..At least I don't have that hangy skin on my belly anymore, very tight!!! -
Do you mind me asking what was your out of pocket expense???? Thanks

First steps of my Journey...
MrsRobinson replied to Maddy O's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hello, My name is Lisa and I have also just begun! I went to my seminar last night and have turned in my forms and waiting for my scheduled first appointment. My insurance company has been great so far. (United Healthcare) It was funny I called last week to get informatioin on coverage and 20 minutes before I left to go to the information seminar my case person called to go over my requirements... Everything meet however, I was alittle taken back by the fact that after all of my adult life being over weight now they want me to go on another diet for 6 months!!!! Anyway, welcome this should be one hell of a journey!!!!!
