Just to let you all know my psych eval went well. He said I am the perfect canidate for surgery. :thumbdown: Thanks for all the posts.

Yes, it seems the worst of this whole journey is fighting with or trying to find out stuff from the insurance. Lol.
-
When I do have surgery mine will be 1-2 weeks clear liquids going into more solid colored liquids...3-4 weeks pureed foods 5-6 weeks going into soft solids then finally regular food.

Questions for Initial Consultation
Froggi replied to PerfctWgt130lbs's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
A really important question is how many lapband surgeries has the surgeon performed. Another one of mine was how their fill appts went with insurance etc. -
my 3rd visit for my 6 month diet is june 4th i have 12 visits total. It's actually going quicker than I thought it would. So many people seem to go right through though lol. Welcome and congrats to all the people being banded soon!!! :thumbdown:

My surgery will be around Oct/Nov ...I'm still working on my 6 month diet lol. Don't worry the wait is worth it you should know! Waiting a few months is so worth getting your life back. Good luck!

Hello!!! :thumbdown: Welcome to LBT!! I understand you wanting to live completely. I'm 22 and I have never really lived...have a BMI of 60. I hope you can start your journey soon! Hope to hear from you again when you find out more information or have questions/thoughts.:smile:

Congratulations on starting a wonderful journey to a healthy new you!!!:thumbdown: Welcome to LBT. I would say going to that seminar was the best thing I ever did. Got the ball rolling, and it's taking time...but I am already becoming healthier even before I have the surgery toward the end of the year. I hope your journey is smooth and that it's stress-free. And again welcome. Hope to hear from you again!:smile:

New here; thinking about lap band
Froggi replied to Demeter's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Being that your BMI is only around 32 you might have problems finding insurance to pay for it or a doctor to do the procedure. Do you have any health problems due to your weight? -

That's amazing!!! Congrats on the shrinking :woot: -
Everytime I hear that joke I start to giggle!:woot:

I can't see my toes. I can but not very well! :woot:
-
Awwww cute!!! I have a hamster with 3 legs hehe.

I had to wait 2 months before my seminar...and I still have to do a 6 month diet for my insurance. The wait is worth it. The more you learn before your surgery the better you will do. I would wait it out. Good luck!
-
I'm sure it will. I guess there is also a positive to this...you'll probably lose a bunch of weight! I know that's horrible but it's true, but I am sure you will feel better soon. Good luck.

Hello All!:thumbup: I just wanted to ask you all if you know any good motivational weight loss quotes. I am wanting to make a kind of plaque to put by my bed with a good quote on it to encourage me everyday. If you have any good quotes PLEASE let me know. I will truly appreciate it!:thumbup:
-
I'd say it's probably because of all the liquids..possibly also any meds you are on. Just keep hydrated. Good luck.
-
OMG I am so sorry. I hope everything works out.

Do you feel it is "private" enough in here?
Froggi replied to Hippiemama's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I feel if I am going to talk on an online forum and the fact that I'm going to be having weight loss surgery anyway...that I shouldn't be very private. I have to be open to everyone I'm talking to and with what I'm learning so why not be open on here too... -
Where can I get a cheap scale for measuring food??? I have measuring cups lol

Hi Kristy and welcome to LBT. To be at the weight healthy for me I needed to lose 249 pounds. It will be slow but it's possible. My surgery should be toward the end of the year!!! I hope I continue to lose weight on my diet. Good luck!

I'm glad everything is working out for you now!!
