I am 5 months post op next week. I began my journey at 315 and am about 225 today. Most importantly, I feel wonderful.
I had a sleeve performed by Dr. Thomas Umbach in Las Vegas. I used BridgeHealth for insurance purposes though I have BCBS of Illinois. BridgeHealt flew my wife and myself out, provided a beautiful hotel which happened to have free continental breakfasts, they gave us $800.00 for food and incidentals, paid 100% of my surgery costs and when all was done gave me a $1000.00 credit on my healthcare spending account. If they could have done more, I sure do not know what it would have been. Dr. Umbach and his staff at Blossom Bariatrics in Henderson (south Las Vegas) were attentive, caring and more courteous than anyone could ask. The doctor has developed his techniques so well that I had zero pain or nausea before, during or after. I felt so well the evening of surgery that I should have taken in Donnie and Marie on the strip. They kept me in town for a few days for post op review, questions and such and sent us back home feeling extremely blessed.
I am not losing weight every week but I am still losing. I track what I eat in my MyFitnessPal app. My 6 month followup will be in July. I am anxious to meet with my primary doctor. It was she that lovingly said to me last year that I needed to consider surgery.
If I can encourage anyone, I would feel honored to do so. Send me a private message if you feel the need to ask anything personal.
