The November 'band'wagon!
stampwithbarb replied to LadyLeigh2012's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Just got thru surgery last night, Nov 2....so I did end up staying the night in hospital. So far since home 11am on to now 4pm, I have downed about 35 oz including 30 grams of protein. No gas pains, 6 cuts, largest 1.5 inches it looks like. More sore if I move in getting up or down, walking fine. Sugar count was high after surgery but fine now. Good to be on the other side...... -

Keeping It A Secret
stampwithbarb replied to 4sweeties's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been pretty open to telling most people....not telling thru facebook let but most likely I will. The part that I am not open to is the telling of the cost as we paid in full. BUT there is a lawsuit started due to doctor and insurance issues...one of my doctors refused to turn in his paperwork. Now I am wondering why he has not turned in the bills for insurance. I had a copay only to him for my dieting for 6 months. Due to this, insurance is refusing to pay. I decided I could not wait any longer due to my health issues. So my family, friends know, but not so much on the money and doctor issue. My surgery is Nov 2...... -

I am only a day and half from my banding date! Friday late morning is my time.......and has not had a diet coke for like 10 days now....I wonder how it will be sleeping on my left side? I am a side sleeper and it is left mostly. But plan on doing the recliner sleep time for a few days if needed. -
And I must say, even different post op diets..

We, in Oregon and Washington (we border WA), they don't have any CVS......but I did find some I could use so all is good. -
I have one and I love it...the only thing to remember is that to not take it with you when you might need a xray....the runs the battery down and then does not keep as good of a charge. But I do love mine.... paintwithbarb is my id on fitbit.

What Will It Cost Me To Get Weight Loss Surgery?
stampwithbarb replied to Alex Brecher's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
my insurance should of paid but I was refused due to not all of my records being turned in by one of my doctors...but it should be fixed later. I just could not wait any more as this is my health so I paid out of pocket $14,800 and that will cover me for 90 days after getting the band, to be banded on Nov 2, 2012. -

I start the pre-op diet by tuesday...they wanted a 10 day diet before of the liquids...Tomorrow is my birthday so I had my last meal today with family and plan on starting tomorrow as there was too many other things going on with them for tomorrow...that way I have it started before I go back to work this week. but had to go off some of my pills 14 days before surgery. -
