  1. Happy 50th Birthday BCS!

  2. Hello and congratulations on all your weight loss. I am at straight 200 l;bs and my first appt is on 5-7-09. As a black woman 2 woman did you have any hair loss? I was warned that some black women lose hair due to the relaxer we use? Have you heard this?

  3. My fill Dr is two hours away and I really need to get an unfill. I know that bc I am dehydrated and having acid reflux. I need to find time to get down their but it is so hard with my job, kids (single mom) and the Holidays. Anyone else out there ever suffer from band related dehydration and/or acid reflux? No fun!

  4. Three weeks today that I sent my paperwork into bc bs of minnesota and still haven't heard. This is pretty frusterating! Anyone else have this long of a wait?

  5. 1st load washing done dylan fed garden weeds dug fb updated

  6. My doctor refused a fill! I am losing weight but only bc of my newfound eating exercise habits!I need a fill! Should I cry now or later?

  7. At this point I am beyond fed up with this whole process!! See my topic "ready to scream" for details.

  8. Off to my 3rd post opp appt! Don't think I'll be getting a fill bc I seem to be in my green light place...except no wt loss in over a wk hmm

  9. Hi: I would really enjoy being your friend. I live in BC Canada am 64 and retired. Been on my journey since Feb.01,2007. Doreen

      I didn't cheat. What was the point? As mortified as I was that I had to resort to surgery to help me lose weight, imagine how even more mortified it would have been to have found out that I didn't have surgery because my liver wasn't shrunk enough. Some tough love here coach....if you are thinking about how to cheat and you haven't even had surgery yet, you might find it difficult to have the success you must want so badly. Really dude...follow the rules. If you don't, you may be going under the knife for nothing.

      I lost 71 on my own just messed up me knee to the point knee doc said stop working out

  14. At the moment I am at the lowest I have been. Fed up of being told that I'm getting a revision and then they dont deliver. Cost comes into it on the NHS. Thats why I'm looking further afield. If you know of anywhere decent let mknow? The condition has made me push my friends away

      I have never had a revision. Have been treated twice for malnutrition. Have problems with Barium meal as I vomit it back up before it has any effect. Looking for an alternative to this so that the NHS will continue. Otherwise nothing and no hope.

       

  15. First visit with the PCP today, a month out from surgery. Off BS meds immediately after surgery and she is reducing my HBP meds. Did bloodwork to check cholesterol...will see when results come in. Feeling great!

  16. Happy Birthday bc-bet!

  17. Happy 90th Birthday corn-fed!

  18. No approval...... fuck BC/BS! :)

     

    I only have to pay $6K, since I have to do other stuff with the band, I'm not getting charged for some of the stuff.

     

    Heck... I've paid a lot more for other stuff, I think I can pay $6K for my health!

  20. Hi there! I got your name from the chat board bc I was asking if anyone was pg? and colleen mentioned you were. I was wondering if we could chat a bit? I am currently 9weeks with baby #2 but this time I am post band. Congrats btw!!!

  21. wow u lost the same as me....I was banded in July and my progress is actually slow bc ill lose and gain...be patient your doing just fine!

  22. Thank you so much, good info. I have not done any pre testing yet bc I wanted to go to Dr. Aceves. I have not had any trouble but the surg here, bc of my age wanted all these tests. I might still have my pcp get me a pul func test? but feel I will get a good eval the day before. I still wake up at night going over concerns, just told my daughter about the sleeve surg and she doesn't know about mex. I am so glad for all your help and everyone's sharing, so important to me.

  23. is kinda fed up with baby using my bladder as a bouncy castle! lol

  24. Hi there!

    My name is Nicole and I was doing some searching for BCBS Fed in Texas and I saw a post that you had on VerticalSleeveTalk.com. At the time you were just going thru the process. I was wondering if you ended up getting the procedure done and if you had any problems with BCBS Fed. Thank you for any help you can offer.

     

    Smiles,

    Nicole
