    I'm curious to know how you did with the psych evaluation, I thought this would have all come out then. Also I'm not sure if you would have met the criteria with a 29 BMI,leads me to wonder if the doctor submitted in accurate information to get you approved, fraud
  3. Scottyd1264
    I wonder how they got you approved, with a low BMI
  4. Scottyd1264
    Did the insurance pay for it ?
  5. Scottyd1264
    What was your BMI when you had it done, I only ask because mine was low (29)..
  6. Scottyd1264
    You will

    I am 4 weeks out and what Babbs said was true for me.... I had big time regrets, and now 4 weeks out i am eating and loving i had this...
  8. Scottyd1264
    WOW... How much weight have you lost in the week
  9. Scottyd1264
    It's a little deceiving, for most there really is no pain, you will start the liquid diet. Your stomach is swollen (still no pain) but because of this its bigger, so when you start to drink and for some start to eat, you dont feel any restriction. Than about 4 weeks out the swollen is gone and you start to feel the difference. i just started my 4 week diet where i can eat really food and I did feel the restriction.

    Just so I understand, they are going to make your stomach even smaller? I think I read that the bypass was reversible

    Sleeve to big?

    Scottyd1264 replied to Bino's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    But why do you think that, you can get the operation report and it will tell you the size of your new stomach

    Sleeve to big?

    Scottyd1264 replied to Bino's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Yes, I used to see Dr. Nusbaum I had the lapband and switched over to Dr Nusbaum. when i had the sleeve done by a different Dr. I asked to make the stomach bigger, the Dr. did it and i dont feel any restriction... I think it was a mistake... What was your post about.... why do you think yours is to big?

    Sleeve to big?

    Scottyd1264 replied to Bino's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    So, what do you mean the sleeve is to big? Is it that you dont think the Dr. did not take enough out/off ?
  15. Scottyd1264
    I was told people gain all the weight and than some back. I dont understand how that can be with a stomach 3 times smaller
  16. Scottyd1264
    Yes you are missing something. It was only approved because I had the lapband and it had slipped, its call revision surgery.
  17. Scottyd1264

  18. Scottyd1264

    How long have they be tracking the results of the sleeve.
  20. Scottyd1264
    I had the band 5 yrs ago, I am 5’4 my starting weight 205, I lost 50 pounds…. Band slipped this summer and had to be removed, started to gain the weight back, and got up to 180. Had the sleeve 2 weeks ago. I have already lost 18 pounds. This so different than the band, I don’t feel hungry at all. I am a afraid I am going to lose to much weight
