Sorry Ladies Can't Make it on the 24th



Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

I have a full plate on me on the 24th. I have to go to a field trip with my Daughter to Crowders Mountain and then two birthday parties. It stinks! I am sorry but I can't make this one. I will miss you guys! I go to the nutritionist tomorrow for an official weigh in. I am now at 189! Life is good!

Thanks,

Angie

Angie,

Dr. Baumans office said that the nutritionist might would do the fee in payments. Did you pay the full amount up front...or did you work out payments? Thats the only part I'm nervous about going to Dr. Bauman. I have all of my records and such from Dr. V now, so just waiting on my appointment with Dr. Bauman to see how things play out.

Thanks Ladies! I wish I could go and I hate it that I have a bunch on my plate for the 24th, I almost cant fit everything in my day! That is Awesome Kim I hope you hit that 50 pound mark that would be great!

Yes Melissa, Dr Bauman's Nutritionist splits the payments. You pay for the first visit 100 dollars and then after surgery you start paying 100 dollars every month. They do not submit to insurance. Once I am done paying I will submit it myself so I can hopefully get the money back. We shall see. They will work with you and I don't see a problem if you prepare and know it is coming up each month after surgery. I saw her back in April and didnt have to pay again until August. Now I am on monthly payments. Don't stress to hard about it he did really good with my surgery. He is a great Doctor.

Since I now have copies of all my evaulations I got to read what everyone said. Mixed reviews on that. LOL Not sure I liked what the nutritionist implied about my weight training, but hey the psychologist thought I was pretty well balanced, so my obsession about getting a surgery date wtih some doctor soon is most like a perfectly healthy thing. LOL I went to a meeting tonight with people I hadn't seen since May, boy were they shocked to see I had gained weight and not lost. Ah well...soon soon.

Since you are not going to be there on the 24th angie you need to post a picture so when we meet in October we will know who to look for! Your weight loss numbers are great.

Way to go Angie! I can't wait to hear what the scale says.

Kim I bet you'll meet that 50 mark.

I started my liquids today. I barely made 800 calories, which I really am not all that happy about. I think 1000 is a good # to lose, not sure how fast 800 will do.

Melissa, did they give you anymore answers today about where and what Dr V is doing? I would really like to go.

      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.
