Topic: here I go... banding on Sep 3rd

I was approved by United for banding on Sep 3rd.  Still undecided on which one.  I will meet with my doctor next week and discuss it with him.  I start the liquid phase this Thursday.... a little apprehensive about 2 weeks of that, but the payoff is worth it!  I am excited to get this "show on the road"!

Thank you all for your well wishes for my Surgery! It means a lot to me to know that so many of you have stopped by to wish me luck. Thank you :) I will keep everyone up to date with everything starting with the pre-op diet of SKIM MILK!!!! That starts September 1st

Topic: RE: Surgery Date Sept 10..moved up a week!
I hope you do not have a problem with insurance...Hopefully with it not being over the 30 days between the weigh ins will be acceptable. Plus it is not your fault if the Dr is unavailable, what is there to do? I am self pay so did not have the policy hoops to jump through,only my husbands..lol
I am on a liver shrink diet I guess I have a lucky one a protein shake for breakfast and lunch and  a 1 cup salad with protein for dinner. I was wondering with so many people doing the liquid if I should do that also..but I guess I should just do as I'm told..?
keep me posted on your insurance decision.
Thanks
Susan
I'll keep you in my prayers

Topic: RE: Surgery Date Sept 10..moved up a week!
I am having a RNY, I am a little concerned because today the Dr. office called and my 6 month prior weigh ins are not exactly 30 days apart..i explained why as my Dr. is only there on Mon. Wed. FRI. and she had a two week vacation during that time..All are within 1 to two days of 30 days, none are over 30 days..Hope this is not a problem...I have Cigna..What is your ins...Your surgery is right aound the corner, are u on a liver shrink diet and for how long?
