Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor Band date May 12th in Kentucky



Recommended Posts

I am married and a mother of 4. I have struggled with my weight since 1990. I am paying cash for this procedure because my insurance/company denied it even though it is medically necessary.

I have to make this successful and need all the help and guidance I can get.

Hi - I'll be happy to be there for you with any help I can provide. You can PM me at this site, or email me directly at sandi@bandedliving.com. I too had to pay privately because my insurance company did not cover and I understand botht he fear of failure and the frustration. You may find some useful information at my blog at Sandi's Banded Living — My Lapband Weight Loss Success Story

I have my story up there along with tips and tools I've found useful on my journey.

Good luck and please reach out with questions. You are not ALONE!

Hi Angie, my surgery is scheduled for May 5th. in Southern Indiana. I am from kentucky, was married for 19 yrs. but now divorced for 3. I am raising 3 kids.

I'm really excited and yes a little scared about the surgery. I need a buddy too so I thought since our surgeries are close together we could help each other?

you may message me on here or my email is zionssongbird@yahoo.com

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
