Just a quick update. After personally communicating with Mr. Fisher' date=' it's very clear to me that he doesn't belong on this forum whatsoever and he's been banned permanently. We wish him best of luck in all his future endeavors.

I'm going to reopen this thread since there's no need for it to be closed now.[/quote']

Thank you :)

I'm not going to read anymore post on this. I got through five pages and couldn't stop laughing. I got denied back in June because my insurance requires 2 years of bmi 40 or higher. I did see a different doctor one of those 2 years and thank God it helped me meet my requirements. I know this is known of my business but I think the guy that was upset about seeking approval for surgery if you don't qualify because of bmI, I believe was a tad bit misunderstood. If he had of stuck to his original reason I don't think it would have went that far. I believe he was upset that she wore extra stuff to get over the hump which is fibbing a little. I had a few friends that did just that. I'm not mad at them at all. I actually would have done it too if I needed. I wish all the best! My surgery date is Oct 15.

Quick fix my a..... Don't be a hater.

I think he is just saying that to weigh yourself down with change and gadgets is a load of crap. They need to know your true weight or anesthesia and other things could be dangerous. I do believe there is criteria for a reason

Not hating on you. I wish you much luck and success.

There is a reason we were "done" with this thread. Updating or commenting on anything really is going to start something else. Why not move on and keep the peace?

Agreed. This thread should be eliminated. It evokes too much emotion in people. Good luck on your journey

You will do great because you are so determined!

I'm defending the original poster. I didn't need to lose 100lbs or more but I was having knee issues & my asthma was getting bad. I have no other health problem. I fought for my rights & I'm a person that gets what I want. For my height 5foot I was obese at 211lbs. My surgeon says I should go down to my starting weight that's 140lbs putting me to lose 71lbs. I decided I want to be 125lbs putting me to lose 87lbs. I saw my self getting fatter each time. I have 3 kids. 15 year old 4 year old 2 year old. I didn't want to die at age 33. I did everything requested & required of me & got approved. Now at 157lbs later almost 3months I'm very happy & this was the best decision I made.

If your classify as being over weight it could be by 50lbs you can have surgery as long as you have great doctors like mine to approve you & a good insurance company to cover it. In this world you need to fight for what's right.

I believe I would be bigger by now if I didn't seek help to lose this weight & I did do many diets. This was my best & longest results & I can't stop saying I'm very happy with my decision.

You go girl. You know what is best and no one can stop u

      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.
