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.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
