    I would like to lose 100lbs My Nsv would be to walk into any store and just pick an outfit that fits nicely. Also, to wear my knee high boots. I also want to just be able to play with my two boys comfortably. I have a5 year old and 1 year old

    I'm dreading the 2 week pre op diet during the holidays. It will be worth it though!

    I haven't received my date yet but I was told January. I'm excited but looking forward too.

    Just curious. If your bmi is NOT 40 Or greater and you don't have hbp, diabetes, heart issues or sleep apnea (so your only problem is weight) will you somehow get approved for the procedure? Any other tips you guys can think of to get approved? I've had 2 vascular surgeries and had my surgeon write that band would eliminate some of the vericose problem but not sure ghi would go for that. Any tips and tricks?

    Who Has Had The Band Done At Nyu? :)

    SpartanPrincess replied to Anali11's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals

    Was there a reason some of u chose to stay overnight? Should I be prepared for that? Is it common at Nyu?

    IM reading the other forums and people Complain of complications such as coughing not being able to swallow and clots. How common are these things

    How common are complications?

    SpartanPrincess replied to SpartanPrincess's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Thanks ladies. I'm such a worry wart and sometimes Researching the internet really doesn't help

    Success!

    SpartanPrincess replied to dramatect's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories

    Dr fielding George is mine too. I'm in the pre op 3 month nutritionist phase

    Am I the only one actually worried about the surgery part of the band? My husband is an md and says it's no big deal but I worry about it. Concerned about general anesthesia and such.
  23. SpartanPrincess
    Met with Dr. Fielding today at Nyu. He seems cool and relaxed. I have 3 more weigh ins but will get the band in January. Looking forward to it but nervous about the surgery and healing process.

    Had my 1st consult!

    SpartanPrincess replied to SpartanPrincess's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Time will just fly I'm sure. I just always get nervous like, is this safe I don't want to die type thing but my dr. Said its equal to getting appendix removed, so very safe.
