Why do we fall off the wagon? & How to get back on?
akaet replied to bostonmama's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Where do you live? I just had a revision 6/16 at Cedar Sinaid hospital in Beverly Hills, my surgeon is amazing. I had my original surgery 20 years ago a VGB and recently had a revision RNY due to severe GURD and pain. I remember there was another patient that who I met that had the sleeve to RNY and she had Medicare. It's possible when you're having complications. Document everything. Pain and vomiting have studies done to see if you have GURD. Best of luck. http://bio.csmc.edu/view/5877/Daniel-Shouhed.aspx Aka_ET HW-220 Pre-op 194.3 RNY SD June 16th 2017 CW-176 GW-140 HT 5' 3" [emoji120][emoji878][emoji1272] "You may see me struggle but you will never see me quit" -

Change happens and it's common that they act more involved, he may feel threatened and may feel as he's going to loose you. I wouldn't jump to any conclusions about this. Take it one day at a time. It's great that he wants to be more involved he did stay by your side no matter what. I'm sure he loves you.

I'm the same way. Disappointed with my weight loss. I don't understand. Seems 20 years ago it was much easier. Aka_et HW-220 Pre-op 194.3 RNY SD June 16th 2017 CW-185 GW-140 HT 5' 3" "You may see me struggle but you will never see me quit"

Any June 13th buddies out there??
akaet replied to Raychelrose7's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Wow. You look amazing. I had a revision from a Vertical banded gastroplasty that I had 20 years ago to a RNY on June 16th. I'm slowly losing weight. I'm kind of disappointed. But I'm feeling better from my severe GURD. Grateful for that. My email is aka_et@me.com you can find me on FB. Looking forward to getting to know you. -

So Awesome! Thanks. I hope you get your surgery approved. If worse comes to worse, are you familiar with the WLS appeals attorney? I really hope you get approved and it doesn't have to go to that.
