pre-op diet struggles



Recommended Posts

Hello all,

I'm relatively new to this forum. I've been lurking here and on the Lap-Band site for a few months, trying to make up my mind what surgery to have. After a lot of thought, I'm pretty set on the sleeve.

Right now I'm doing a 3 month supervised diet to meet insurance requirements. In an effort to really be committed to improving my health and life, I quit smoking. Unfortunately,now I've been gaining weight like mad. I'm afraid they won't approve me for surgery because I'm up almost 15 pounds. Did anyone else have to quit smoking or gain during the supervised diet? Did you still get approved? Any suggestions on what else I can do? Now that I'm not getting my happy fix from nicotine, I'm reverting to fast food to get that feeling, which I know I should not be doing. Any suggestions or advice?

Thanks!
