Do you miss being overweight?

How about when you do manage to sit in a almost too small chair, you get back up and it makes an embarrassing sucky noise. Happened to me more than once with a plastic one. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app -

Out With the Old--In With the New!

Fluffy are you up and stirring off your perch? I started a new thread on changing hospitals this morning, Creek Imp already weighed in, I tell a little more of the story over there. The lyrics of a song in my head " We ain't gonna take it , we ain't gonna take it anymore" wish I could sue the socks off of them, but that's my redhead Scots-Irish temper coming out. Where do I go from here? I'd hide myself in food but I won't do that ANYMORE. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app -
After going thru the entire program in 2015-16 ,being never told I had completed and was approved, my job was terminated and lost insurance coverage. I thought I had only completed 5 of the 6 required dietary consults. I had not persued it at that time, I'm told recently former insurance only required 5 sessions. They were only waiting on a new # from new insurance carrier, they could have told me then but failed to. Hokay,I then[emoji7] started the process over last fall, did all my different requirements all over,had all done by the end of 2017. Have been waiting with somewhat baited breath for a surgery date, had 1 person call from surgeon's office and gave me February 15, turns out she was a minor peon and spoke out of turn. Official person called last Friday, said---'" oh by the way psychologist wouldn't clear you for surgery. "This person when I saw her face-to-face told me I had passed all requirements and she would be telling them that. 1st time thru I had talked to a full psychiatrist and things were fine, well I'm the same old me as I was then, Now I am told their commitee-' I call them the Bariatric Court of Appeals ---will be meeting February 20 to review my case. Do they over-ride the faulty assesment, does my surgeon have the necessary man bits, (I'd use the proper Spanish term but I don't want Alex to ban me,) to go forth with this surgery as I think he should? All the sudden I feel like like I've fallen into a beauty pageant and I'm being voted whether I'm Miss Congeniality. Does desire ,weight loss & commitment count for anything? I've cut my weight down 32 lbs ---and at my age and activity level it ain't easy! My Bariatric Facilitator Amber says to relax,and everthing will be All right, if everything is so okay then this isn't a game that should have been played. My past approval should count for something.I need this surgery, it is my last best hope for better health and a longer lifespan. If I wasn't depressed before, I am now. It is difficult to accept I am unfit and unworthy, I've fought that battle --'hearing that from family and so called friends.[emoji25][emoji25][emoji8] Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

February Surgery Buddies!
kakatlady612 replied to Lyds85's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Jessica--- she doesn't believe in the surgery and can't give you a valid reason why? Time for you to sever ties, move on to a PCP that will truly care and be there for you. I'm lucky, I have a great PCP, when I told him I was considering it, he sat down with me, gave me advice as to what program his previous patients had used and which program he felt was best for me, wrote me a letter of referall and is one of my biggest cheerleaders in this endeavor.

Out With the Old--In With the New!

Ready for this- I saw a psychologist not a psychiatrist this 2nd try in the Bariatric Rodeo. Found out now that I had been approved in 2016, my job terminated and i lost insurance coverage,at that time. Now they tell me i had been totally approved and were only waiting on my new insurance# to assign,me a date. Never told me. Anywhoo, this independent psych broad from what i understand stated I was either emotionally or mentally too instable,for surgery. Never gave me an inkling of her backstabbing plans. Thought we had parted on good terms, even told me I had passed,everything that day. GOD I hate being,lied to and/or manipulated. Now I wait a week to find out if the impressions each of them had meeting or consulting with me is enough to over-ride her negative comment. What is this Miss America where I have to be Miss Congeniality,? I'm a little old to compete in a popularity contest. I'm sorry Fluffy --but it twists my knickers in a ball.

The Baratric Court of Appeals won't meet until your surgery date. Shall we say I didn't make this week's docket? How do i keep from going bonkers? How did you keep from pulling out your feathers? I wanted my life to show some order, it's like organizing a drill team of earthworms, everybody is wiggling out of my reach. I keep blowing on my whistle but nothing's lining up. It could still be early-mid March, I don't know whether to hold on that or resign myself to dying fat, broken in body and spirit. I had come so far,was working on making changes to my life and health to have it dashed on the rocks. I really thought my surgeon had the man bits (well you know the proper Spanish term for it) to go forth, did I misjudge him? Are his hands bound? I just heard within last 5 minutes from Amber the coordinator telling me not to sweat it, things are not beyond hope . Easy for her to say, right now I'm shaking,like a bowl of sugar free Jello. your BFF Me Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app -

Hey 2018 is 3 years from 2015. Knowing Anthem's devious little mind, and anyone who has dealt with them does, they probably will disallow it. That's why in Ohio we call them Anthem Doublecross. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app -

I am more than slightly egg intolerate, as an example I can tell you how many eggs are in an omelet etc by the amount of gastrointestinal pain. And the smelly loose stool in a few hours, I know I know TMI. Hey things a little snafu for me, I'm in Mansfield now but when I Get home I've got to call Columbus. Lets say my case went to the Bariatric Court of Appeals at my hospital. A prayer at this time would not be unwarranted. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app
