wow your weight loss is great! Good for you Army Wives. I am a little discouraged myself, have only lost 8 lbs in the past 4 wks since my surgery...lost about 15 lbs prior to surgery. :-( Had my first fill yesterday so we will see how that goes. :-) Take care!

3 Days Post Op---Weird Chest Pain
leischristianmom replied to kittykat56's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I also had the same feeling for about 2 wks...gas from when they blew my stomach up at surgery. It was more uncomfortable than anything else. Like she said, Gas-X did wonders. Good luck to you! :biggrin: -

Sounds like you are doing awesome & are keeping your head straight. Good for you. Keep it going! My surgery is 25 days away...getting very excited. -
Hi Rae,
Are you able to tell me what you were given as a pre-op diet? My surgery date is 8/26/10, and my pre-op appt is only 9 days before the surgery...so I am thinking that I need to start some sort of pre-op diet plan 2-3 wks before right? I am also at 40% bmi right now, and am 36 yrs old this month. :-) Good luck to you, yours is right around the corner right?! Yipppeeee

Has anyone had a hard time getting approved?
leischristianmom posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
With less than 40 BMI? I am at 37-38 BMI...(depending on the day of the week!) I know they say if you have other morbid conds, you can get approved, but I dont really have any Dr visit notes to provide on them....I am one of those people that don't really like to do to the Dr when I am hurting. I am always sleepy, freq headaches, joint problems, etc...but nothing I can document. Please let me know if you have similar BMI and were still approved? Thx! And congrats to everyone on here that's had the surgery and is now loving life even more!!! I can't wait and am trying not to get too excited just in case. Thx!! :biggrin:
