My insurance covers if your BMI is over 40, or there is a medical necessity for the surgery. GOOD LUCK!!!

Topic: RE: anyone else on 10/14????
Hi. I had the same worries as you before I went in. The catheter does not hurt coming out. Also, I was worried about the drain hurting when it came out. I got it out today and it didn't hurt at all. My period came one week to the day after my surgery. Good luck, I will be thinking and praying for you.

Topic: RE: Sticking to Pre-op diet - yikes!
I am on the 800 calorie, high protein next to nothing carb diet.
Today I failed. It is my first day. =/ I had ramen noodles with my kids. I just need to get into a mind set. Last night I had a personal pizza and just ate the toppings. Lots of veggies.
Like someone had suggested, get rid of all the "temptations".
I just need to get to the store and get my veggies and I will be content. OH my surgery is 10/23. Just need to get into a routine.
GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!
