  1. My bill was 39,000+ that's what the hospital billed my insurance but the insurance company Has a set price they will pay the hospital, the hospital won't get 39,000 they get what they have agreed upon. I paid 600 for everything so whatever! Ha!

    @@kimdlawson06 Yep!! I've lost most of my weight in my waist, hips and butt! Of course thats depending on the jeans. Those where some Jlo jeans I bought I also got old navy and they were 14 just depends on the jeans. I don't weigh my self very often but I did on Monday and had lost 8 lbs in a little over 2 weeks. I didn't feel like I had lost more but my husband said he could tell. I'm also tall so that helps! 5'9 Although I feel like I'm getting shorter...it's weird, or maybe it's just because I'm smaller that I feel that way? I will take whatever!

    New Gal here!

    Depending on your surgeons procedure you may not even feel the cath, they put mine in once I was knocked out and took it back out while I was still under, the sleeve works for "most" everyone if you put the work in. I think everyone loses weight initially but you have to be willing to put in some work to keep it going. Liquid diet was not hard for me I just stayed extremely focused. I only had nausea when I stood up the First two day and then it went away, everyone is different so I can't say how your exact outcome will be but try not to stress!

    I'm not spending big bucks on any clothes until I get down. I've been shopping at our local goodwill, they have fantastic Clothes! I was a size 18 on the day of surgery 11/3 10 weeks later I'm a 12 so nope, not going to waste my moolah!

    @@Sexy-D If you go back to basics (not drinking before and after Eating) it will help. I've stuck to that exact plan and I'm down 40 lbs in 10 weeks. You can do it!

    Food questions

    @@Sexy-D Ok well first of all the stuff you just mentioned ....bad! Go back to the basics Protein FIRST and then eat other things that are healthy. I eat a lot of seafood, chicken, turkey,ect..(lean protein) also things like eggs and cheese. If you need to drink protein shakes to help then do that. My favorite is the premier protein (ready Made) chocolate shake with a scoop of PB cookie syntrax powder. It gives you 320 calories, only 2 grams of sugar and 53 grams of protein. Look up high protein recipes.
