Im so excited and nervous at the same time. Nov 11 is the day :-) anyone else have a date in Nov?

I'm at st. Joseph

Orange

Nov 11 socal :-)

I'm so glad that I'm not alone in nov. I hope everyone does great :-)

I have mine at st. Joseph also

Im right there with you. I started Monday also

I wish I could eat bars. Its a high protein shake diet. I can also have sugar free popsicles jello and low sodium broth

Lucky.. I have to do a 2 week liquid diet before surgery

I was surprised on how quick it went by.. I had to do a 6 month diet. Now all my hard work has paid ofg

I agree. Its nice to share and know someone else feels the same or has gone thru the same thing

Did anyone have to stop taking their birth control before surgery?

What things did you have to go through if you don't mind sharing..

Does anyone here have Kaiser? As anyone had the surgery through Kaiser?

Does anyone have the same insurance add me? If so what are some of the things you've had to? Is there a 6 months diet required? What percentage do they cover cuz I have called my insurance and they are dumb one person didn't even know what bariatric surgery was.. please help

Does anyone else have this insurance? I was told I have to paid my deductible plus copay plus 30% of the allowed amount? That's seems high to me...

So I had my first appointment with the barbaric surgeon. The surgeon was great and ever informational. However the lady who was suppose to help me understand what my insurance requires didn't know anything. Does anyone have Blue Shield PPO?

Has anyone gone through Kaiser to have weight loss surgery?

Thank you bunnyk. What did you do during those 3 months

Stupid auto correct. I mean bariatric.

I'm excited another step closer. I wonder what he will say? Wish me luck

I have some concerns now. Have any of you had any slippage? Has your portal flipped over? Or has anyone had the lap band long enough to cause a whole in your stomach? Those are the things that stuck with me all night. Then they brought up the sleeve and it had the same effects but less things could go wrong..lol So I'm unsure if the lap band is right for me. Any advise or any comments do these things happen out the percentage of it happening? Thanks everyone

I rather you be honest. It is a life changing producer. I want to make the right decision. Thank you

Can anyone tell me the estimated recovery time is. Do ppl go back to work immediately or couple days? I know everyone is different bit I would just like to hear what ppl have to say. Thanks guys
