Support Needed & Searching for NC Sleevers
ImForgiven replied to Danalodon0825's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well calm down, I first thought all's I had to do was go in and have the surgery. I started in Febuary, my surgery is July9th and they told me that was fast tracked... They will have you see a shrink, a dietician, your doctor (then again to have a full physical a week before surgery), their weight Guidance Councilor, their doctor. I bitched and moaned and bitched and moaned but now it's near and I'm coming up with reasons how to put off the pre-op diet till the last minute.... I should have started last week if I wanted to have an early recovery, shooting myself in the foot.... With a fat bullet... It was easier to quit drinking, and quit smoking, now I'll see what I'm really made of.... So take that 6 months and work the program, don't let your weight rule your mind..... -
How many Supervised Weigh-loss visits did your insurance require?
ImForgiven replied to christo5's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
United Healthcare, no diet requirements except for the pre-op, I'm a newbie, have not even started the pre-op. My surgery is July 9th, thinking about starting this week..... I should but will I.... I decided to have the operation in Febuary, had to fulfill the recommended doctors visits the hospial required, not my insurance.... I guess they wanted to make sure I was up to speed and really wanted it... The psyc, the dietician, my doctor, their doctor, .... First I thought everyone wanted a piece of the pie, but then I figured in the long run I would be close to being on top.... I wish you luck, over weight in Nebraska...... -
Nebraska..... Yea, Nebraska... July 9th.....

Preop Diet...starving!
ImForgiven replied to optimumhealthgurl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I mstart a week from Today on my Pre-Op..... New here, looking forward to it, I've been told the presurgery diet is the hardest thing.... Thinking about starting it early, been told the better the pre-op diet is followed the better the recovery.... I'm hoping for 1 weeks and back to work... Sorry, my operation is July 9th, I've been told going in starving, after the surgery will need to be reminded to eat..... I find that intreging cause I've never been reminded to eat, only reminded to stop.....
