Dr.Vincent Polite LCMFT

My surgery took place on March 16, 2012 in Celebration Florida and was done by Dr. Keith Kim, a very good surgeon in this field. I have done research for about 4 years on the subject and talked with countless people about the surgery and those who have had the procedure done. The most surprising thing that I learned was that most people view WLS as a negative cheating way to lose weight, but the majority with that viewpoint were often uninformed or just ignorant to the whole weight loss process. As I sit here 3 days post-op and can feel my body returning to the size it was meant to be I can say that much of my concern is not centered on getting in shape. As a former Army recon scout I was really ashamed of how I let myself become out of shape and lacked the self discipline to eat right and stay in shape but I vowed to not be over 50 and fat……. And so begins my first steps.

I'm having that same issue but I'm only "eating" lowfat yogurt so that's expected. My problem is dealing with contractions that feel like hunger pangs but i know that im not hungry

Hello Everyone, It's very inspiring to see so many people taking charge of there lives for the good. I have a few questions about getting banded. 1. I have disney cigna, what is the process you have to go throughwith them ? 2. Is the approval different with co-morbidities? 3. How good is U.S. Bariactrics for banding?

They do cover the surgery. i also have two co-morbidities does that change the 6 month requirement?
