How does this work because I had it out with my surgeons office the insurance. I called my insurance to see if my surgeon submitted the info for the appeal for the peer to peer. They informed me that my surgeon didn't send the info in time and that they tried calling numerous times and offered them a appeal process. I called the surgeon office and they stated they never heard from th insurance and that they sent the data. Also the surgeon office said that the peer to peer got canceled by the insurance because that had already denied the surgery so now I am highly upset getting the run around. Lastly called insurance back to explain what the office said and they stated the same story but it was a different rep for the insurance. So different reps are saying the same thing almost. Plus surgeon lady rep had a attitude. So I am lost and just wonder why its this hard.

My surgeon is wanting to switch me to a SADI-S. Is this procedure ok. I am nervous.

ok

I don't mean to annoy anyone but my question is ,I am on a 800 calorie diet and I find it very hard to stay on this diet no because I am hungry but because everything now is loaded with calories. So I am puzzled and wondering is 800 calories a day too much or too little. Dietician says anything over 800 will cause weight gain and disrupt the process with my shots versus other doctors are like 800 is nothing. I am confused.

I forgot to post. But according to my dietician I am over eating, they say this is the only way I am gaining weight and that it has to be a surplus of calories. I only eat once a day because of this and I now eat lean meat only. So if this does not work than I quit.

Either November or Late October. Forgot when I made the post.

I don't eat croutons, avocado bacon or nuts in salads(ewwww lol). Just grilled chicken, ranch, cheese, onions, jalapeños, cucumbers.

I usually only get hungry once a day. I currently make a homemade salad or get something from a meat a two place, usually baked chicken and some collards, mashed potatoes. I usually eat one whole meal a day now and two slimfast for the other two meals.

They give me the eye roll and say it's got to be something I am eating or drinking that's causing weight gain.

Yes to your first question. I only lost like 60 to 70 lbs. My surgeon staff only wants me on a 800 calorie diet loss weight. Except low cLorie sweet tea I don't eat much food let alone it's hard to eat anything when most foods have above 200 hundred calories.

2.4 now. But it's not as they thought, they think I am misleading them

My surgery was in May of 2023 and the shots semaglutide.

I made a post about being on semaglutide shots. There aren't working as I weighed at the weight doc's. and I gained 4 pounds since last month. I don't know what to do. But I will be honest. I have eaten nothing but a crispy chicken salad from the Publix which last me for 3 days since I still the restriction with the shots and surgery. I am over year out from surgery. My salad had peppers, cucumber, cheese and tenders with ranch. Only sugar drink I drink is sweet tea no sodas. What am I doing wrong? What should be eating. Dietician aren't helping.

No no, the salad is enough to where I can scoup out and put in tiny bowl and eat off it twice for two or three days. On day three I go get another salad and do the same thing. My stomach still gets full quick.

My surgeon is allowing me to go to the specialist and get the needles for shots. Is this a good or bad thing. How long can you take them.

whats oss

Have you heard any good results from these.

I am 5'10 320 male. What do I need to do based on that calculation. Can you explain it.

I got on my scale 2 weeks I was 315 now this week I am 322. Massive gain in that short time. Everyone says I eat like a chicken but chicken don't gain that much weight.

I am sorry to hear about the top part. As far as your question, I am gaining weight so fast, I am back on my liquid diet. My surgery was only a year ago. It has been hard to lose weight despite not eating much and changing diet.

I wish I was hearing these comments

I am so sorry your dealing with this. Mine is 8 months out and I am only down to 315 after being 358 day of surgery. My weight is still up an down even with new diet and taking magnesium citrate.

The spitting is probably from the anesthesia or the breathing tube they had in your throat. That happen to me.

I need to try this then

I was only offered the sleeve as it was said I only needed the sleeve and that the others were not necessary. I just had my follow up and they changed my diet because they said I should not still be in the 300s. I should have lost another 20 lbs by now. So now I am on no carbs period and only water, healthy meats and protein shakes for protein since I don't really eat breakfast. Nothing sweet.
