Yes they paid for all of mine, I went to Austin for my surgery. Great group of Dr.s there.

The lady who called me said that they may not pay for all of mine so I'm kinda worried now. *lol* I'm hoping they'll pay for all of it since I'm over the fat% and have other health risks. Keeping my fingers crossed.

They're sending me to Temple to get mine done.

:thumbup:Hi there,

I actually requested to go Austin and my PCP put it in for me as they were faster at getting me in and banded. The only thing I had to pay for was the psych exam, no biggie and well worth it!! I did not like the psych doc hear in Killeen, he depressed me!!! What are they wanting you to pay for?

I didn't know Austin would be faster or I might have gone that way. I'll see if I like the doctor and staff in Temple, if not, I may change. The psych doc, was it Chupik? I'm going to that office, but I don't know which person there I'll see.

Not sure what we may have to pay yet - I should find that out on the 21st. But I don't see why they wouldn't pay 100% of mine. Guess I'll wait and see.

So how are you doing with yours? Liking it? I'm really nervous about the whole idea of it, but my husband is reassuring it'll be ok. I just want it done since we only have 16 months left and we're out of the Army!

hey, i live in Killeen, and i was just wondering if anyone who also lives there might want a band buddy. someone to work out with, keep you on track, etc. i've been banded or 6 weeks now, so i'm still at the beginning, and i'm just starting to exercise. if anyone is interested, let me know.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
