i was born at franklin square

anyone doing their surgery through ummc with dr kligman

i have uhc and its through my fathers employer and the requirements were i had to have the insurance for a year a bmi over 40 and be on a medicated diet for 6 months and have a psych test

i had my first appointment last week and want to share my story. both me and my husband went in to see the clinic because we both have a bmi over 51. im the only one considering surgery however but my husband wanted to get information anyway. well we went in and saw the nurse together. they took our mesurments and bp. then the surgeon came in. he seems nice but very to the point. he gave my husband the name of two doctors that covers medical weight management and then took my history did a general check up and then sent me to the nutritionist. my new diet is strict no soda ( i love soda lol) no juice high protein low fat low carbs. try to get to 10000 steps a day. no drinking with meals i have 6 meetings with the nutritionist i dont have a set amount of weight to lose but if i gain weight or dont lose any weight then im kicked out of the program

thanks for this post its amazing
