Topic: WLS during divorce
Has anyone ever had WLS while in the middle of a divorce? I'm schedule for surgery on 3/24 and am a little concerned when I read posts about depression, etc. I'm actually at the end of the divorce process, custody, etc. and am feeling good about my future. I would love to have the opinion of anyone who had WLS near a divorce.

Topic: Had my surgery!!!
Hello all...I had my band put in yesterday. Other than soreness, I'm feeling okay...I'm taking my protein, and sipping broth, so I'm cool. Any advice would be helpful....I'm sooo sore!!!!
Topic: RE: Cash pay
Look at the positive - I paid almost $10,000 out of pocket - my insurance would not even consider the surgery. I used Capital One. I found that applying online was very easy. My only surprise was that the surgeon's office charged me an additional $350 for a "processing fee". My thought on this was - I am very comfortable with this surgeon and his office staff - heck - I'd spend that much on lunches :) I went for it and never looked back! Good Luck!

I had lap band on February 15. Does anyone have any good suggestions on restaurants and what to eat there? I know mexican food - refriend beans - a girl can't live on beans alone.
