Ate A Full Burger And Fries! Help!!



Recommended Posts

45K is most likely the insurance cost. I always thought it was crazy how much the insurance is charged versus what cash pay really is. I know my ex-husband had his gall bladder removed and the cash price was 15K (day surgery) however they accidentaly sent us the bill as if they were billing insurance....42K!!! I panicked and called them and they adjusted it back to 15K. Crazy huh?!?!

I also had to get an unfill this week because I was too tight and have had an awful time practicing self control. Ate foods I haven't had in nearly a year. I'm trying to look at it as a hour by hour challenge, not thinking about the 6 weeks I have to wait until my next fill. Good luck! It's hard!!

Ok, guys someone wanted to know why I got an unfill, Why would I get an unfill is simple, I had too much in my band with the last fill. They may have taken too much out. I did realize where I was making the mistake, I was drinking with my meals, the Fluid was pushing food down so I could eat more. Thanks guys who gave me advice, but I think we got a little carried away with the cost of surgeries and a 3500 calorie burger, lol. Thank njmomma letting me knw how you are feeling it is good to know that someone else is human and able to admit issues that we have with food. If we didn't have issues with food we wouldn't opted to get our bodies cut open a put under. Have a great week guys. God Bless.

Oh, at least all the binging has made me get out and hexercise more. I haven't been able to eat a burger with fries in over a year, that is my favorite food, they call me Whimpy, and when it was in front of me I wanted to eat all of it, I was greedy for over 10 years, I have been banded a little over a year. I have gone from a size 22 to a size 12. Thank u Jesus.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
