If you haven't had surgery yet what are you most afraid of?
mzsweetb replied to mimorison's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have one friend where I live no family. I have kids and I'm afraid that something will go wrong and I will have no one to turn to my kids will be all alone that is my greatest fear. -

I feel this way too. Im am pre op and even the thought of losing 20lbs after the surgery is shocking to me and i do hv days i feel is this really gona work or will i be this weight forever? -
You dont have to feel you have to tell him every little thing about your past. Just enjoy now stop feeling pressure your past is your past if it comes up in conversation one of these days then you can tell him what you feel comfortable with it. Do you know about all that has happen in his past? Probably not cause men dont feel the need to bring up everything that has happen to them in life. Live for today and if he cares then he wont judge you when and if YOU choose to talk to him about it.

How did you handle the nay sayers ?
mzsweetb replied to antpatte's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I told one friend i was thinking about going mexico. Because of her response i am not being as open with ppl as i thought i would be. She never ever ask me if i as still going what is my plans she was just so negative. About the whole thing. I have enough to worry about so only ppl that need to know will know -
Me too im glad im not alone

I havent had the surgery yet but I have similar fears I have high blood pressure and recently have been having heart palpitations and pressure in my chest. I did a stress test and they say all was okay but I still have this fear that I'm going to have a heart attack while in surgery. I just trying to have faith because if i continue on this path i will hv one anyway.

I am just begining. I have waited a year to qualify to even start the process because i had to be steadily employed 2 years to be qualify under my insurance. Today makes two years. Calling insurance to start my 6month process finally! I pray everything works out and i get approved. -
What was your out of pocket?

I know that for my insurance I have to pay $500 deductible for the surgery. I am not sure the cost of the PCP visits. Im suppose to have 6 before surgery with copays of 40. -
Fallacy of the 6 month wait....
mzsweetb replied to Recycled's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This is me. Right here this post its like you are in my head!! I am in the begining stage of the 6 month wait. I had to wait a whole year for my job to be qualify under the insurance. If i can wait a year to qualify i can wait six months for this surgery... You are so right -
