Thoughts on Life insurance after weight loss and lab band?
JHale967 replied to Fern's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I recently took out a life insurance policy for my husband and I. I had already had my band, and they had question me about the band, and they talked to a specialist about the band. Finally after a month or so of several calls and questions, they approved the life insurance policy. It just cost more than if I didn't have the band. The amount is not that much more, but it did increase from the original cost they told me it would be. -
Hair loss after surgery??!!
JHale967 replied to JGF's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Being almost one year post-op, i really didnt see much hair loss at first, but as i have gotten off my routine and not getting enough protein, i started seeing more hair loss. Having thinner hair this is a small problem and really upset me, cause i use to have long beautiful hair. Since talking to my doc and voicing my concerns, he recommended taking pre-natal vitamins. I haven't been taking them long but i have seen an improvement and my hair loss is down. And the doc said the pre-natal vitamins would not effect me even tho i am not prego. -
Hey all, I was wondering what you do for a quick Breakfast on the go. I am working on my masters, and really do not have much time in the mornings before classes to eat a big breakfast. What are some of your ideas? I have been banded for 9 months, and the Protein shakes have gotten old. I use to mix vanilla with some fruit, milk and ice. Please help!!

Able to eat more in the evening????

My doc said that one of the reasons I feel tighter in the morning is because of the drainage in your nose and throat while u sleep. My doc suggests drinking hot tea, coffee or any other hot beverage to help clear out the pouch before having breakfast. This has seemed to help me. Hope this helps! -
The Wii Fit and Wii Fit Plus is awesome! After a couple of months of working out in the gym, I got tired of it because i dont like people watching me when i work out. I bought a Wii and Wii Fit in June and have loved it ever since! You get to workout in your own home without people staring at you. I bought the Wii Fit Plus in Oct when it came out, and its so much fun. You can exercise, yoga, strength training, and it even has fun games. If you have a family, your whole family can work out on it and have fun with it. They also have over work out games for the Wii, one is by Jillian Michaels (from Biggest Loser) I would def recommend getting a Wii !!
