Tomorrow Is My Consult!!!!
Bashfulcoyote replied to Bashfulcoyote's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
went showed up 15 mins early watched the lady try and set up a projector screen, Im hopeing she is a better Medical assisant then she is dealing with Computers and projectors! LOL Claudia Weighed me in, there scales said 303lbs Mine at home say 298 (I like mine better). The Dr was 20 mins late, he was stuck in OR. No big deal. He finally got there did his speech. We went in and talked to him. He thinks my insurance (state insurance of Medi-cal) will denie me. Because I have no complications from my weight that could cause me to die, such as high Blood pressure, sleep Apena, High blood Sugar. Im to healthy, lol. So we are going to submit it and see if they denie me,if they do I can appeal. Then if I get denied again I will have to do a Dr supervised Diet program for 6 months - 2 yrs. Or I can join Jenny Craig or Weight Watchers. Personally I dont like there diet plans so Im going to do my own thing. Im going to get in to a Registered Dietitian. Tell her I want to Low carb, which Im already doing. And then force my butthole Dr to weigh me every 2 weeks and chart it. I dont care if he wants to or not this is my life and he is going to help me get it on track!!! He is always blaming everything on my weight he outta help me lose it. -

Yup I agree Adkins Induction will help you lose. I have lost 6.5 lbs this week. Im doing it because I was told my insurance is going to want me to try some weight loss plan that has to be monitored by a Dr.
