Same here. BCBS didn't cover my surgery either. I can tell you this though' date=' you will SAVE money on the amount of food you no longer buy/consume! I am already seeing that! The first few days were tough for me, some pain, mourning food, questioning if I did the right thing. I think the majority if people have these thoughts at first. The two week of liquids after surgery is no fun!! You just want something to chew, lol. After those two weeks though it is MUCH MUCH better! You can do it! If you ever have questions or need to talk, just message me anytime![/quote']

Bobs wouldn't cover mine so I went to Mexico travel and all 6000.00

Greenbriar is in the iffy area west of Southern Hills Country Club. I don't know about the complex specifically, but that area has had a lot of crime in the last few years.

At this time, 30 days from now I will be in the hospital recovering from my procedure! I'm so excited! I have no nerves at all about the actual procedure. I have my colonoscopy this Wednesday & I am absolutely dreading it!

Hey I am getting sleeved sept 20 but moving to tulsa from ny in November is tulsa a nice city any thing I should worry about or parts I should stay away from

Apartments near Whole Foods: 1 1/2 miles north on Yale are Ridge Park, The Lodge, Pepper Tree & The Vintage, 1 1/2 miles west on 91st are Lakewood & Crown Chase. There are also apartments at the corner of 101st & Sheridan (about 2 miles), but I didn't get the name. This should cover a variety of rental rates from luxury to mid/low. Good luck with your apartment search! Can't wait for the store to open :)

My predetermination of medical necessity has been submitted & I called to check on it yesterday. I was told they denied due to requesting proof of 2 co-morbid conditions that have not responded to medical treatment. I questioned why when my BMI was at the 40+ requirement. She looked at the paperwork & the surgeon leader was the first page & stated my BMI was 39. When she looked at the next page it had it listed correctly so she sent it back through for review with that note.

I am now anxious about it going through again. I've been so positive through all of this & refuse to let this little bump bring me down! I know it happens all the time & that people hit much bigger bumps than mine but it still bugs me a little.

      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.
