What's the reason for the higher mortality rate? -
Denied because of only 1 WLS per lifetime.....
Ms.AntiBand replied to Teachingmom's topic in Insurance & Financing
Seems like there was someone here who had the same worry. She was told that if she could not have the revision at the time of the band removal she was out of luck because only one per lifetime. Not sure how that turned out. If your policy states only one they will fight you so they don't have to pay.. It I wouldn't give in. Sometimes you can beat them at their own game.. But if it's written in the policy, they have grounds to deny it -
Has Anyone Managed To Keep Surgery Completely Private?
Ms.AntiBand replied to bettyboo's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
7 months and only husband, kids n boss know. And I have a bigass family and none know. Not parents, siblings, or the such. No one has said a thing. -

Ms.AntiBand replied to NeverBeTheSameAgain's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yep.. Right on track. Hang in there and soon the weight will come off like before. -

Ms.AntiBand replied to kailie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hey girl.. You want WLS or easy! GO GET IT.. Don't give in, work your assoff and go after it anyway you can! Good luck! -
You will most likely be on long term PPI after any WLS. It's just goes with the smaller area for the reflux to occur.

Hopefully, you're not doing this only to become skinny. If that's the only reaon then maybe it's not worth the risk of dying. Being skinny is not worth dying for. If you're doing this for more reasons than what you stated then I'm assuming they outweigh the risk. They did for me and I'm sure most others here. Good luck

Ms.AntiBand replied to lynndtt's topic in Food and Nutrition
I use them anyway. -
Also ground flax seeds in yogurt is really yummy too.. Makes it crunchy
-
I eat a cup of bran flakes, like potato chips, on my way to work.. I've never had a poopin issue, but it's worth a mention if it's an idea for others.

Aquariums are like swimming pools and unless I can afford a pool/aquarium boy/cleaner I ain't having one

Beware! woman traveling to TJ
Ms.AntiBand replied to blindsided's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I knew Dr Garica was of good character .. Good for him for stepping up to the plate and doing what's ethically correct. -
Me too! Luckily I quit after I eat all the M&M's

Dr. Garcia and his Team in Mexico was excellent

Another Dr Luna post! Such an interesting topic a of late.. Sheesh! -
There are several on the forum who have experienced leaks. You can read over them by searching leaks and an abundance of posts will come up

Hopefully, because you were dx with dehydration they rehydrated you with fluids via IV? If not I'd be mad.. You need to be hydrated and if your sick you need instant fluids.

Congrats to your wife.. and you ... for once again making me feel like a slug

I don't drink any carbonated beverages and havent or years simply for the fact it doesn't have anything good in it.. And most likely harmful ingredients. The only purpose for drinking soda is for self indulgence and I'm over that and find better-for-me things to indulge in.

No artifical sweeteners or processed products
Ms.AntiBand replied to moonlitestarbrite's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Actually, there are quite a few of us who have gotten an abundance of protein and still lost hair. I'm not sure if I understand your question... Looks like you have the foods you need to stay nourished. (Plus vitamin supplements.) Any food can be puréed so it's just what you've eaten prior to surgery so there shouldn't be an issue -

Ms.AntiBand replied to moonlitestarbrite's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
As long as you can get your water and protein in you're good to go. I use stevia a sweetner, but other than that everything natural should be doable? There are many organic yogurts too -
Sorry you had to learn the hard way. This is why I didn't tell a soul other than my immediate family and boss. I have enough stress in my life without inviting it. Hope it turns for the better for you soon

password needed for special interest forums
Ms.AntiBand replied to awalsh45's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Some groups make you become a "special" member and then give you a password. I refuse to join because I don't understand the point... Like what is it a secret society or a clique? Silly.
