Hello everybody, In March of this year I was scheduled to get my gastric bypass, well long story short I chickened out, and that was a horrible decision for me to do. Because now I have arthritis in my left hip along with my other issues, so I called my coordinator and she said my insurance would still cover my surgery, I'm super stoked this time, and I am never ever going to put my health at risk again, this time it's different I have a goal, my goal is to have a baby by the time I'm 31, my wonderful boyfriend and I were talking about having a baby and at that moment I knew I was making the right decision, plus I'm tired of being unhealthy. So LETSGOOOOOOOOOO. :)

And does anybody know what health insurances cover the skin removal and or body lift, that's in California?

Okay, I talked to my nutritionist and I'm still confused all I want to know is how much sugar can I have before and after the gastric sleeve because she gave me a list of snacks and drinks like for example she put 2 1/3 of graham crackers but it has 8g of sugar and 8g included so 16g of sugar that's a lot then, she told me about the equate protein drinks but, that has 16g of sugar and 12g included, my question is how much sugar can I have because all those I listed are a lot of sugar and I DO NOT want to have any issues

Hello, I was just wondering something. Anyone with PCOS, GERD, FATTY LIVER all or some of these conditions, what is the most weight that you guys have lost with the gastric bypass? And for anyone who's had the bypass how did you guys prevent excess skin and, did you guys require surgery to fix the excess skin on your body such as: A BBL, TUMMY TUCK, BREAST AUGUMATAION? Hopefully, my surgery date will be in April/May because I have to get an endoscopy and I'm super excited but nervous at the same time about my surgery. And my main concern is I had an allergic reaction to my birth control in 2019 so I was just wondering what type of conceperative do guys use to prevent pregnancy without birth control do you guys use the depicote, IUD?
