:(Please pray for me... This all starts in 2006 I had lap band lost 150lbs but was so sick the entire 2 yrs.. It was removed in 2008 when I gave in to my body shutting down.. It had slipped... now I have gained 165lbs back and I am trying to get vsg..yes I understand it was my fault to haved gained all the weight back but at the time I had alot of stress in my life and gained instantly 30lb in fluids the 2 days I was in the hospital when the band was removed.. I was starving to dealth... now I was getting enough money back on taxes to get the vsg and have an appointment for 4/18 with Ramos Kelly... well that said.... I got a letter that my taxes are delayed for further checking... I don't owe anything but my understanding there is problems with my income.... PLEASE PRAY THIS GETS CLEARED AND I GET MY MONEY AND GET MY SURGERY....

Sending all my best wishes on getting your taxes in time for your surgery! I had to delay mine by 6 months and it felt like torcher to wait that time.

I had my surgery on the 18th with Dr. Kelly would have been great to have you in our group. All the same it will happen for you and I am wishing you all the best. I had to use my taxes along with a loan from my 401k so I know how it is. I hope it happens soon waiting is the worst

Hugs and praying it will all work out. It isn't your fault the weight is back. The band failed you like it did me and so many others. I really do pray you are able to get your sleeve.

Well folks I still need prayers... I have yet to get my return and the IRS can not give me a reason... This is BS... I call every other day and nothing after the initial 30 days they send a message to a different dept. and say to give it another 30 days... That was on 3/25 so I am in waiting... I have talked to Sandy and She is waiting until 4/8 to hear back from me...

I just really need prayers.. This has gotten me so down that I am not wanting to get out of the bed..

I am a mother of 3 (son is 15 and twin girls 10) also 1 of my daughters has Down Syndrome and needs extra care.. I have got to get healthy so I can take care of her.. My mother in law lives with us and takes care of the things I can't.. helping her bath and stuff... But that is my job..

PLEASE KEEP ME IN YOUR PRAYERS..

Angela

      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.
