Amanda1982 replied to Amanda1982's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I dont have a deductible that has to be met. Just 100.00 to the hospital. I also check to see if the anesthesia is covered because I've heard this before and as long as they are in-network they are also covered. Trust me I've double checked this lol but I still won't be spending any of the money because you never know!! -
on my way to the hospital

Thanks for the info this should be a required read! -
Putting it all out there...
Amanda1982 replied to MrsHumphreys's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
From what I have read and what my surgeon told me some people do not feel restriction until they have had a few fills, while some don't need any fills. Not everyone fills restriction right away. But no restriction does not mean don't follow the diet. It's mind over matter. Try not looking so much for restriction and try to follow the diet and exercise a little more. You will get to you sweet spot soon enough. Ps: If you find that you have fallen off the wagon get back up and try try again. Good Luck! -
