My insurance covers it every 3 weeks. I got three months. Then have about 4 periods a year. One every quarter. Solo much better! Oh and if you have a hard time getting it in use an empty tampon applicator!!! A MILLION times easier

caitiegirly07 replied to 1972's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I want to tell you something... First you are a beautiful human being. The amazing thing about life is that it it has the ability to be anything. You may not realize it, but to someone you are their everything. Nothing positive comes from that. Believe me I understand your pain. I understand the hopeless feelings that make everything so dark but know that somewhere there is lift and life waiting to shine through... And that I may not know you, But I love you! -

caitiegirly07 replied to Amanda R's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I can honestly say that it is so hard. I have about 0 will power but I have to rework my way of thinking. I look at a candy at and think that is 2 hours on the treadmill... Or is that drink worth one judgmental look or second thought? That's the only way I can do it -
Does nutritionist visit have to be exactly the same day
caitiegirly07 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Does my nutritionists visit have to be exactly the same day each month? I got a letter saying they moved one of my visits back 3 days. Will that effect if my insurance will take it? -
Anybody tried this? If so how was it

That sounds good! The only one I have been able to do it the Special K pre mixed but they're expensive. Have you guys tried the tasteless protein?

Harsh coworkers/friends?
caitiegirly07 replied to futuremrsparker's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Just so you know most company's have a section in their employee handbook. I know where I work we are not to discuss fellow employees medical history or problems. It is grounds for termination. However if I choose to discuss that is fine but it has to be positive -
Pre-Op supervised Diet?
caitiegirly07 replied to heygirl_143's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Boyfriend is NOT supportive
caitiegirly07 replied to iggs3113's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I waited years because one boyfriend disapproved looking back all I can think is ... I wasted so much time trying to make him happy while sacrificing my own happiness... Be true to yourself and know that once it's done you will be able to love yourself a little more too. -
Poorly bear when you insert it I empty a tampon holder and intern it into the empty case and then use that... No mess no fuss and no struggle
-
Yes I chose because it is so dangerous if you become pregnant in the first 18 months because your hormones are crazy and you lack nutrients.

I am on the nuvaring and I love it. I don't have to swallow and remember pills.. I can skip periods if I want. Also it's free now in Ohio. I think though I may get an Implant just in case if I get the surgery.
