No I still have not received my records so I am gonna call to re request them and call my GI doctor to get a copy of my records and weight from them as well

Ohhk I am hoping my weight is documented in all records

He said because I missed 3 appointments even though it was in five years that he can no longer be my pcp. I feel if be was that adamant about missed appointments he should have the 12 people who work in his small office do reminder calls.

I am hoping he has my weight on file otherwise I don't know what I should do

I have Aetna and now I am nervous I am on my 60 day visit and my doctor dropped me and I am hoping my weight is on record on my medical records now I need my OB/Gyn records and hope all goes well next month

I had my PCP drop me partially cause I missed an appt (which I think was stupid since it was in 3 missed in 5yrs) but when I asked him he was totally dismissive and even refused to write anything to even document my weight history. He said it was fraud. I asked him about my referrals for the nutritionist should be documented he said he had no recollection. I was going to this man for 5yrs he reacted as if I we never met and I have never been treated by him. It's hurtful and frustrating. I hate keeping secrets but when it comes this I think besides me and my surgeon husband and close friends I won't announce it!

Ok

The iPhone has the app for this its just as easy as FB

In any situation u need to know what you want to do l. If u want the relationship to work talk to him and see if he is willing to work out with u otherwise start preparing your life as a single parents M

I am so glad for this post I am 5'1 and I was 225 with a BMI of 41 when I started looking into the surgery I have been super aware of what I take in and my tentative date of surgery is February. I even planned on a trip to Columbia for a lipo but I would not be able to lose much with that. I went back and forth for years and I started with a BMI of 36. I have done the yo-yo thing and The straw that broke my back was being only 30yrs old I work 3 shifts in the last 36hrs and my knees were in so much pain I had to sit for and hour with a hot pack to keep the pain from intensifying. My back was hurting and I basically could not move until the Advil kicked in. I was sure of this surgery but today I am running to it. I am also apple shape so I keep wondering and hoping my heart won't get effected with this weight I actually love going to the gym but I am in so much pain after I end up takin long breaks and not going back. I hope u keep in touch because I am happy to meet a mom that is going through what I am

When I first started thinking about WLs I went to a meeting I felt like maybe I wasn't heavy enough. I started the process told people and the first thing they said was really u don't need all that u can do it in your own!! So I followed everyone and I got pregnant had my daughter and still struggling with this weight. I feel like if not now, when? I am over 100lbs over weight my whole life is basically effected. My feet hurt, ankle, knees. I am weak tired and borderline diabetic.

That's hurtful and honestly for someone who has such stupid things from my husband it's really discourages my weight loss efforts. I would get myself together for myself build enough confidence to say good bye

Ohhk so right after my post I visit my primary doctor and was excited to talk about my new journey! I was so disappointed he dismissed the idea told me he has no idea about anything on the surgery and we never talked about weight loss!! Plus he dismissed me for missing 3 appt now I gotta find a new primary and start over.

Hey I am nikki and If everything goes through I will be having my surgery in February. I am excited and nervous all at the same time. I am borderline obsessed with all info about VSG. I am 30yrs old and spent my entire 20s on diets exercise and frustration because of my weight. I am ready to get healthy for my daughter. I want to be able to run and play with her and fit down a slide. I hate just standing there and barely being able to walk up the baby stairs with out losing my breath. I been going through years of debating which at one point I started everything and stopped cause I got pregnant.

Thanks I am so nervous I am borderline obsessed. I am trying to figure out if I am only eating 800 calories how can this surgery help me

I keep hearing eat protein and drink protein shakes and I know my doctor was telling me to increase my protein but I want to know why? I can't eat red meat have cut out some of my chicken why should I eat protein and how much should I be eating

I am new to and it took me almost 3yrs, a child and 20lbs and I have decided to go for the surgery. I am nervous and excited and a little disappointed that I could not do it myself. I just started so I have until February to worry about the actual procedure

Thanks!! I try to find dresses that mask my stomach but I hope I can keep that dress or get it resized

I started this process on Oct 23rd and sometimes I am nervous and other times I am excited!! I just got my paper work and have talk to my gastro doctor and this week I will have a real conversation with my internist. I been struggling with my weight for over 10yrs now and I have tried everything including starvation. I am not expecting a miracle I just want to feel like I can walk and run and jump without feeling my knees about to pop or my ankles being so weak. I can't hardly walk around my neighborhood with out feeling like I am gonna die cause of shortness of breath. I hardly told anyone about my surgery because I didn't want any nay Sayers. I keep reading about leaks and cancer and all the scary stuff but I am borderline diabetic and i feel like i am surviving not living. I keep getting sick and all I hear is I need to lose weight. I am making a decision to be healthy but I am scared of Surgery. I am 30yrs old with one child. I know obesity effects the entire family so I am hoping that my weight loss and change in eating will help my husband and show my daughter a healthy body image.
