Hi OvrLvl, Yes, I went thru my insurance Aetna. It took about a week to 10 days to get approval. I went to my first seminar in July and had to go thru all the test, and 3 months of Behavior, fitness and nutrition ( my insurance required it). Then had to wait for the staff to put all of my paperwork together to send to Aetna. It seemed like it took forever, so be patient. Good luck and keep in touch. I have 1 day until my surgery and am ready but kind of nervous.

I went to dr Kelly but have read a lot of good about dr Alvarez too. I didn't feel unsafe, my 19 yo son went with me and I'm glad I did it. No regrets. I'm losing slower than average due to health history, but IM LOSING! 250 day if surgery 213 now. 265 before preop diet. It has its hard times, but if you are emotionally ready, it's sooo worth it!

Your doctor is full of shit. It is quite common to need more that 6.5 in a 10 band. You need another fill my dear. Good luck.

Hi everyone. I am a AF veteran and a spouse of a (AF)military retiree. I am in the Bariatrics program at Camp Pendelton. I live about an hour away but tricare sent me there. I don't live near an active base and my pcm is a small private Dr office. I addressed my weight concerns at my yearly physical (my first with this new Dr. as my hubby only retired about 18 mo.(at that time). I braced myself for the negative comments I had experienced in the past from military Drs. you know the drill.....eat less....exercise more....with the looks of pity. I have definitely had a few "winners". now I admit I am sensitive about the weight issues so some of these things could have been how I perceived them. When I had my physical this past January I carefully broached the subject with my new PCM and he asked me if I had ever thought of surgical options. well.....yeah! of course I had but I honestly didn't know enough about it to make an informed decision. That is what I had told him and I was so grateful that he said he would be happy to start the process for me to get a referral to speak with someone so that I could learn more. He said it in no different way than if I had asked him for a referral to see the dermatologist. I so love him for that! He sent my referral request to the insurance company for me to see a specific Dr that he likes to send his patients to. When the paperwork came it was for Camp Pendleton...an hour away.....I was very upset that I would have to go that far. (later I realized it was a blessing in disguise). The date came for the the info session and the one on one consultations. when I was called into the consultation, the surgeon matter a factly, having reviewed my paperwork and medical history, stated that based on #s I needed to lose 10 lbs and that VSG was the best option for me and that my surgery would be in 6 mo.....any questions?! I was so ready to justify why I felt I needed it and what my medical history was. I thought I would have to convince him I needed it and wait for insurance approval. I walked out stunned and happy. I am about half way thru the process and reading and educating myself as much as possible.

PCP sent forward referral to Bariatric group!
riley4183 replied to dquintero's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
For the Kaiser Richmond program, they start your weight at the weigh-in orientation. Some Kaiser programs will take it from a doctor's office weigh-in, but mine didn't (my highest weight was at orientation weigh-in, so that was OK with me!) With the weekly class I am in, the weigh me there too and put it in the file. Also they take my blood pressure all of the flippin' time! Once I started it seems like it is going fast, and the sooner I lose my weight (I assume it is 10%, but my surgeon will decide and I have not met with him yet) the sooner they will schedule my surgery. My goal is to have lost 10% by the time I see my surgeon. Good luck and keep in touch! PS, Kaiser Richmond has their bariatric surgery binder online at their website if you want a preview. Good luck!

The Truth About Life After 'The Biggest Loser'
Goddardgo replied to Terry Poperszky's topic in Rants & Raves
I actually adutioned for season 9 with my cousin. I am thankful that I didn't get the call. Now my cousin did, the next season. She was part of the season 10 cast. She did an awesome job while being on the ranch, lost 96 pounds during the season. I will say, she has reminded me that it is a "contest" and they really do try to win the prize. I know that she had a really unforgettable experience while being on the ranch and is happy she did it, but I think this last season just went to far! The winner looked ill.. too skinny.. not healthy. I just can't wait to get my sleeve on!! -
How soon where you told you can have soft solids?
Christinamo7 replied to LaliGator's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was on soft foods just about 10 days I think? at my one week check they said 10 days to two weeks (14 days), but my swelling went down quickly and I wanted something - scrambled egg was my first nibble. one bit was all I could handle but it was lovely. also had refried Beans that weekend. -
Plus most insurances clearly state that the weight that "qualifies" you for surgery is your initial weight. So you are correct they cannot mandate that you lose 10% of your body weight and then deny you for being a few pounds shy of being "officially" obese. Good luck and I am sure things will go your way

I wa so nervous and there was nothing to it. I had lost 22lbs since surgery/ The NA met me at office b/c I live 2 hours away and she was about to go in to work at ER. She had me lay down and numb port are and then gave 3 ccs She pushed a little hard but found port very easily/ She said usually the 1st fill is not as much restriction. I go back on 12-12 for next fill. I hoper everyone had a nice holiday. On now to better things.:cursing: Kathy

Hi Chic, Just want to lend my support. I have had 1 fill (yesterday) and am still very hungry. I'm hoping that I feel restriction very soon and hope you do as well. You hang in there and I agree what's the point of going through all of this if the band wasn't going to help us not want to eat so much! Do you know the size of your band and how much has been put in? Perhaps you got the 14cc? I got the 10 cc and I think it makes a difference.

Hi Everyone I am one month post op today (3/23/21) from my laparoscopic VSG surgery. Everything is going fine. I was a low BMI patient and my weightloss seems to be in the normal range with a -19 lb loss in the month so far. I am eating soft foods now and getting my 64oz of liquid in. My incisions have healed fine. However, a few days ago i started having intense pain about 2 inches above my belly button. Its continuous and very tender to the touch. It feels like a very painful bruise or a sore muscle. Has anyone experienced this? Its hard for me to wear my usual leggings because it sits right where that pain is. I was able to sleep on my stomach soon after surgery but not anymore. Any insight is appreciated. Lucy

Lapband / Gastric Bypass
Treadmillwalker replied to journey2befit's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I chose to have lapband. I do not want to remove 80% of my stomach with sleeve or face malabsorption with bypass. I am happy with my band. I'm compliant and my surgeon is very skilled and I trust when he tells me all WLS have the potential for issues, and he will work closely with me. I know numerous people who love their lapband and have not had issues. I suggest you work closely with your medical team to understand WLS options and issues. Also be honest with yourself about your ability to be compliant with any surgery. What restriction level do you need. I'm not perfect, but I work within the limits of my band. Banded 10/12/16 -
Nervous about gastric sleeve
BabySpoons replied to Breezy_'s topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had bad acid reflux before surgery, so I opted for the gastric bypass. Little did I know I had a hiatal hernia and 10% of my stomach was pushed up through my diaphragm. So I guess I'll never know if the sleeve would have been OK for me after the hernia was repaired. I'm just happy I am reflux/heartburn free now. I have read many sleeve patients suffer with it so I can see your dilemma. Good luck! -
Trish I do this exercise and it seems to help. Standing beside a dresser or a chair grab a hold with your hand for support. Lift your leg out to the side then bring it in and cross over your foot that is on the floor. Make sure you hold in your stomach (don't hold your breath just pull in your stomach) while doing this exercise. I do it for a count of 5 to 10 for each leg. Another exercise you can do while lying in bed or on the floor whichever is easier. Lie on your side. Take our top leg and bend it over your bottom leg. Lift the lower leg while keeping your stomach pulled in this will help stabilize you. I do this for a count of 5 to 10 for each leg.

When there is a will there is a way, my husband is like yours he belives in cash...I sold my convertible mustang to have my surgery since my insurance would not cover me.. Now 16 months later 95 lbs light from a size 22 to a 10 I kind of wish I had my convertible to tool around town in but honestly I'm glad I did it, the band has been the best thing I have ever done. My goal was to be fit at 40 not fat at 40, Im 39 mother of 3, business owner and almost in the normal BMI range instead of the morbidly obese range. Keep the faith & have hope

I did a lot of research before surgery on long term side effects of cancer and ulcer gastrectomy patients. The nutritional deficits they were seeing manifested themselves 10, 20, even 30 years out. Iron was the first one to show up, then B12, and vitamin D. Between 10 and 20 years after a partial or total gastrectomy, up to 90% of patients had deficiencies with women being more affected than men. This really raised the red flag for me on just his important it is to continue supplements and get annual bloodwork.

5 days post op no urge to eat?
joatsaint replied to aimeelopez123's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My 1st 10 days, I didn't eat much of anything either. I was living on sugar free popsicles and Crystal Light. Since you're not taking too much in, don't expect much to come out the other end. :-p Including fasting the day before surgery, I basically didn't eat for 11 days. My system was used to processing 3000+ calories a day. That's a lot of empty storage space to fill, before it needs to clear out. Just keep drinking as much as you can and give your new stomach a chance to heal. In the first few months post-op, it wasn't unusual for me to only go once a week. I had one spell where it was almost 2 weeks, I got concerned and took some Milk of Magnesia. If you're concerned, you really should consult your doc. He can decide the best course of action. http://www.bariatricpal.com/blog/9018/entry-31570-constipation-and-milk-of-magnesia-or-how-fema-declared-my-bathroom-a-national-disaster/ -

Would I Be Taking On Too Much After My Gastric Sleeve Surgery?
EmilyIsSleeved replied to EmilyIsSleeved's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Thanks for all the responses! I will be 19 at the time of surgery, so that might help my recovery a little. The only downside is that I have never had surgery before, so I don't have any prior experiences to compare to. Since all of you say that you would do the classes and most of you are taking care of kids and working as well, I think I could handle classes and work. Thanks again for your responses and good luck to all of you with your sleeves!!! -
I had surgery on Monday 8/30. Since then I have had 1 of my 6 incision site continuously been extremely painful. It's the only site that's bruised, steri-strip is bloody and it hurts soooo much. When ever I move or have to engage that part of my core (sitting up, going to the bathroom, laying in bed, even just standing up) it hurts. It's like a burning, sharp ripping feeling and it legit makes me see stars and lose my breath. I called and sent a photo to my doctor and they said it was normal. They gave me a stronger pain medication but it only makes me high and doesn't tough the pain when I move. Could they have stitched me up a little off? Anyone else experience this? I need it to be tolerable by Monday so I can go to my work office for 1 hour. I feel alone and absolutely hate doing anything right now because of this.

I had my surgery 19/9. I have basically eaten alone since surgery. As I mentioned in another post I told only my husband & 2 teens. This week I am staying with my brother's family. How have others of you people managed eating so much less than a standard plate without telling about the band.?

Excited, Nervous, and Confused
Used2b575lbs replied to KatieBug's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You should not compare yourself to any others here, everyone loses at a different rate and there are so many factors. You will lose a significant amount of weight over 6 months if you follow the advice of your doctor and nutritionist. If you set a number to it you are only setting yourself up for failure... With that being said it is good to have goals but they should be realistic... One of the things I asked my doctor was how much should I expect to lose... I was told 10-15 lbs a months for the first several months. I was fortunate to lose 100 lbs in the first 6 months and have lost 12 lbs over the past two months. My doctor also told me he could see me being 270 after all was said and done... I've already seen 257 lbs although I gained a bit recently... I do plan on getting to a lighter weight. You should know at one month out how realistic 100 lbs over 6 months is for you on your journey good luck!!! -
I walked every hour on the hour for the first two weeks and every few days I would go a bit further. My Dr said start out doing 10 mins then slowly increase. I am up to a mile a day now. I am slowly increase walking again. Good luck!!!
