Hello everybody

LJB · August 27, 2008

Im just starting out and a little unsure of what I need to do during this six month wait. I'm on my 2nd month of weigh ins with my dietitian due to my insurance coverage with the lap band procedure. Im fine with this but was wondering what should I be doing during this time. I already went to the seminar. should I be doing other things this early on now to get ready for surgery? thanks for all your guidance.

Just do whatever is on your insurance companies "list of things to do" while you wait to finish your six month diet,like do you have to see a shrink? Labs? Cardo? :cursing: Good-Luck to you on your journey!

hello sept will be my last 6 month appt.so far i,ve lost 15lbs. the dietian told me you had to prove to them you can lose the weight because at first i was just going along not caring.so i said to myself i,m gonna try. so i started on my own i bought chicken broth, sugarfree Jello, &pudding, i drink crystal light, i eat salads, carrots,i drink eas protien drinks they help you lose weight. i exercise 30 minuets a day on my stationary bike., she just wanted to know what i eat, an write it down in my files. so i just started own my own.good luck.

thanks for the info - I'm on my 2nd month and had the attitude (I have all the time in the world to lose some weight during this six months) after reading your reply I think I'm going to get serious and start doing what I need to do. Thanks so much!
