Second Guessing My Decision....normal?
SinCityGal replied to Harrier's Woman's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hi Luci84! I totally feel the same way.....I'm scared 1 min then the next, I'm so excited! I'm 1/2 done with my process & I'm hoping to have surgery at the end of the year. I feel like I'm talking myself out of it...BUT, I know I can't lose weight on my own! Good Luck & sending good vibes your way! SinCityGal -

Hi everyone, Can anyone from the Vegas area recommend a Lap Band Surgeon? I've attended Dr.Tengs seminar & I will be attending Dr. Atkinsons tomorrow. Any advice or recommendation would be really helpful. Thank you!

Does anyone know what would be considered a comorbidity for Tricare other than the ones listed on their site? I saw the surgeon today & he doesn't think insurance will cover me. He said that my high cholesterol won't count due to me not being prescribed meds for it! He also said no to my PCOS as well! Any info would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

Hi Jerbear, How long ago did you have your surgery? Which Tricare do you have? Thx!

I go again on tuesday, I hope to start getting those appointments! Thank you!

Hi Gabrielle, What made you decide on Dr. Atkinson? Did you ever meet Dr.Teng? My insurance doesn't cover the sleeve as well! You said that you're not looking forward to the follow up care....you mean the fills? Thanks for responding! -
Sending you lots of well wishes.....although you won't need them!

Jean- THANK YOU for your honesty! I love that you said that you miss it, I wish you much success with the sleeve! I guess the question about permanent damage came from me researching the internet like a crazy person....I'm so damn nervous & this is ALL I can think about! Way to go on your 90+ lbs! THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR REPLY! -
