What are you most looking forward to after banding?
Beachbunny replied to spoiltmom's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I live in a beach community, I would love to feel good in a bathing suit. not being out of breath! My kids think im great heavy or thin, but id love to be in shape and be able to run around more with them. To go back to my former office up north when i visit , and parade around in front of one of my former employees(who was vicious) and just smile! Jennifer -

Thinking about cheating.... opinions??
Beachbunny replied to spoiltmom's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
my surgeon , just says eat lightly , Ive been doing two shakes and a meal at night . So maybe don't blow a whole day , just do one last meal at night (and not the night before). Stay away from the carbs!!! You know where to find me on the email side mandy. If you need my number as a support buddy let me know! Jennifer -

im in south florida...its a hike . But im seeing the chief of surgery/head bariatric surgeon, Dr Paul Wizman in margate. Great office !!! look him up. Apparently he sees high weight people and revisions as well. -
Make sure you ask them if you will be put in icu after because of the cpap. My surgeon told two people yesterday at pre -op that don't be surprised if you wake up in icu for one night. Jennifer

If my surgeon wanted to remove my Gallbladder , id say ok. He is the Doctor and he knows what he is doing. Gallbladders after bariatric surgery can be iffy from what my surgeon said. I would much rather have it out if it looks questionable. Jennifer

isopure dutch chocolate powder at GNC is yummy and 50 grams of protein with two scoops . add water and i add two packets of splenda . its good and im not hungry pre-op on it. -
I think you should send in those weights you found with a appeal letter. people on here may have some samples. If not the insurance commissioner for your state can help. Jennifer
