  1. I am scheduled 4/13 and am on the liquid diet now. I know that after the surgery I will be on liquids. Are you just as hungry afterward as you are on the pre-op liquid? I sure hope not.:hungry:

    Self Payers and Insurance...

    I am a self pay. I see it as an investment in my future. I figure it costs about the same as a good used car. I am worth more than that. My insurance stopped covering it in Oct. 2006. I will be banded 4/13.

    6 small meals verses 3 regular meals

    The reason I was asking is that I have done the popular 6 week body makeover and had success at losing fast, but couldn't keep my old habits from creeping back.
  4. I will be banded April 13. I have read where some people lose 25 pounds in 4 or 5 months, others lost 80 in 6 or 7 months. Personaly I have 100 - 120 pounds to lose. Can some of you share your success and or disappointments?

    I don't want to tell people

    Thanks everyone for sharing. I plan on keeping it to myself at least for a while. However I do feel guilty about not telling my mom. She would freak out and worry.
  7. I will be banded Friday the 13th (just now dawned on me that is bad luck day. HA) I am very nervous. How do you feel right afterward? I mean besides the soreness.

    I don't want to tell people

    Things like slippage scare me for a couple reasons. My insurance doesn't cover any of it. I have to pay out of pocket for the whole thing. Complications could bankrupt me.

    I don't want to tell people

    I feel for me keeping quiet for now is the way to go. It isn't that I am ashamed, I just don't care to be under surveilance constantly or hearing people saying "oh my gosh, I can't believe you did that".

    Honestly, how does everyone feel about their decision? Do you have regrets?

    Surgery 4/13/07 any advice?

    Thank you. It helps me feel a little better. I am afraid I will have that "what the hell have I done" feeling. But looking back I have done nothing but yo yo diet. Seems I am always on a diet but weigh 250.
