Cupcake replied to rosasmotherer's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You and I have the same insurance I had to do a 6 month weight management, for 6 months, and I had already completed weight watchers as well as medical weight lost they said since it was two years ago I had to do the 6 months. Good luck. -
Wow that's great I'm glad that your surgery and recovery went great, I can't wait to join you, I am woundering when I can go back to work after the procedure , I sit down at a desk all day .

I'm sorry you endured this but honestly I would look at this as a God send because he is clearly not the doctor for you, you want someone sure they can perform your surgery with confidence and certainty that your going to go through this with 100% recovery and perfect find you a new surgeon all of your appointments and test will follow you good luck ..

Congrats to you all especially on the choice to be healthy , my surgery may 5 and I can't wait. -
Each surgeon is different because gas x strips is given to you at the hospital as well as you can have them when you get home because they fill your stomach full of gas for the surgery. Good luck.

Hi want about gas x strips I am packing those to help with the gas.

just got the approval for the sleeve have a few questions
Cupcake replied to jitterbug74's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
First I like to congratulate you on your choice to be healthy, the above comments are true, but you can also research both on line on buy both the sleeve book and gastric bypass book they both are great I bought both. I had the choice yo get either one but my husband reminded me about all of the tums I pop from early ulcer so it was recommended. For me to get the bypass because the sleeves makes ulcers worse . Good luck . -

Eating everything but the kitchen sink
Cupcake replied to AR40's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I agree with RJ because your fearing your never eat the way you did before surgury I have my surgery on 5/5/14 and what I do now is drink 72 ounces of water throughout the dat, exercise and have a bite of something I really want and that's it. You can always snack on sugarfree pudding, pop sicker -

Cupcake replied to Cupcake's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Welcome and congrats to you all, this is an exciting time getting ready for surgery the finish line is drawing closer. Is anyone afraid here thought these dates will never come I know I did but I kept my eye on the prize because I know my day is vomiting g just like yours we all deserve this. So congrats again and remember we are all here for each other . -
My surgeon required 10 percent but they want yo see if your going to make the effort yo changed all he said was try and when your on the liquid diet before surgery your sure to loose at least 10 pounds . And that's not an insurance requirement it's a serge on requirement.

Cari73 told you lol, we are always here for you.

Are you open or private about surgery and why?
Cupcake replied to acscholz's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My surgery is May 5, the only people know is my immediate family, no one else, I'm a very private person and it is clearly non of their business . When I loose weight I will just say the truth I have changed my eating habits and I am exercising . -
my boyfriend doesn't approve of the surgery
Cupcake replied to chad.vicious's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Wishing you the best luck with your boyfriend hug I have to agree with the above posts, you have to think about your quality for life not him, anyone who is going through this process understands this is not a easy way out. -
