    Bronchitis, Really?

    Boy you better do a lot of coughing to try to get lungs cleared out. Good luck
  2. I think the thicker the food the less you can hold because it takes more to move it through the sleeve.

    Puree Vs. Full Liquid

    I think so. That is what I plan on doing when I get there. No chunks at all. That will be good to get to that stage. Sure gives more options.

    Finally!

    Hopefully the rest will go quicker for you. My journey to surgery was fairly quick because I did not need prior auth.for instance. Our the6month diet. They should know anyone who considers this surgery can't do it with diet anymore than you can do it with chocolate. They try to hang on to the money as long as they can. The rest hopefully will be better. I am only4days out but i know i made the right choice

    Please Help! Need Advice.

    I think once you are off the antibiotics you will feel better those really drag you down.

    Waiting To Exhale...

    First I would call insurance company myself to find out all the steps for yourself. If you contract a popular bariatric surgeons office they will guide you through everything. They are allot of help. You won't know the requirements until you call. Sounds like your pcp don't know what he is talking about. Go from there,might not take as long as you think. Good luck to you.

    Just Decided To Do This

    Some insurance companies waive the weightless attempts if your bmi is 50. I hope you do consider surgery. Studies show its the best shot long term.I was sleeved yesterday after having failed lap band removed. I have been skinny and fat and skinny sure feels better.

    Smoking After Surgery

    My doctor would not schedule my surgery unless I quit. I had to have 2 urine tests, one 2 weeks after I quit and another a few weeks ago.my surgery is Tuesday. I would be a fool to a start up again as it is I don't like the noises I hear come from my lungs without smoking. If you can manage to quit I think you would be glad. I used chantix

    Any Dippers?

    I had to quit smoking for two months before my surgeon will do surgery. I used chantex. It worked great but what a weird pill. I was determined to quit but I could not go cold turkey. Someone would have probably died. At the same time I had a failed lap band removed. So it turned into an eat a thon. I gained25 pound easy, I get my sleeve surgery Tuesday. Not a day too soon. Can't wait to get back on track. Hope you can get off the chew
