Topic: Non WLS question !!!
 I have 2 sons going on a ski trip with my church to Crested Butte.    Is food real expensive there.   I am wondering how much money they should need.   They will be staying in condo's but not sure if they are cooking.   Last time we went to Co. and stayed in ski resort.....even the grocery store food was out of sight.    Thanks for your input.    They are leaving tonight  ( wed. ) so hopefully I will get feedback before then.   Have a blessed day !!!

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Topic: Dr. Michael Snyder
Is anybody else having trouble getting appointments for a lap-band fill at Dr. Snyder's office?  I called for an appt last week and the earliest possible appt was mid-April.  Amanda is "squeezing me in" in early March.  Needless to say I was discouraged and dismayed.  Having to wait 2 or more months to get in for a fill may undermine what I am striving to achieve.  I called another doc office and they can get me in for a fill within a few days - this is how it used to be at Snyder's office but no longer.  It seems to me that the office has taken on hundreds (or thousands) of new patients but has had a reduction in staff and they are now overwhelmed.  I am frustrated and do not want to move my care to another doctor - Amanda with Dr. Snyder's office is amazing - but I also cannot have trouble getting appts.  Is this a short-term problem or is it getting worse?  What experience have any of you had?  Thanks for the input, I'm trying to figure out what to do next.

Topic: Questions about the six months dieting prior to surgery
After fighting with Cigna for over a year they approved me.  Cigna as most other insurers require six months of monitored dieting in the previous 24 months.  Anyone know how the insurance company confirms this requirement?  Cigna has delayed banding plans and last thing I want to do is wait another six months. If anyone knows please reply. 

Thanks for reading.

I'm looking for a WLS buddy who lives in or near Windsor, CO.  :)
 
              
Weight loss surgery has saved my life and I would recommend it to anyone who has the strength to dedicate themselves to the challenging WLS lifestyle.  This is not the "easy way out."  It's the hardest way out.  "Easy" would have been to do nothing.
