Topic: RE: Starting 10 day diet tomorrow.
I started my 10 day diet back on 3/5 - I won't lie, it isn't easy but the payoff is the main goal... just keep focused and stay busy.. it helps you keep your mind off of food.
Good luck!

Hi, I am just starting the process. I went to the Tallgrass seminar this weekend also. I'm self-pay. Any tips on that?

I am going to see Dr Stewart for my follow up care after I get the band on 3/22. How was the seminar? I am trying to find a support gruop in Wichita. Would you be interested?? Kelli
Topic: Help! Where can I purchase a secondary insurance plan
I recently attended a seminar on the lap band procedure with a friend of mine and I really think that this surgery would work well for me. Unfortunately, I have BCBS of Kansas City, which has an entire section excluding anything to do with obesity.
Has anyone had an luck purchasing a secondary insurance plan that would cover this? I am willing to wait the time period that the pre-existing conditions clause requires, I just can't find anyone out there who doesn't have obesity excluded.
Thanks.

1. My name is Jeanne
2. I am hoping to have Lap Band, but still in the process of my 6 month supervised
diet for insurance. (nov. - may)
3. My starting weight was 287. I'm down to 269 (this week...lol) I fluctuate 5-7 lbs
by the week.
4. I would love to hit 160 one day.
5. Carbs are and always have been my biggest weakness, and finding the time to
exercise on a REGULAR basis.

Please say a little prayer or send me some postive vibes while I am doing this for the next 10 days. Thanks.

Hi Kathryn,
Great job. I'm sure with the warmer weather coming you'll be able to get outside and that will make it more enjoyable to walk, and the Water walking will be great and a lot easier on your body.
I too am thinging of having WLS and will be a self-pay. I'm really concerned about adding the extra debt to my household. I saw your posting earlier and wondered if you had any advise. My insurance excludes anything for weight loss. Thanks from Missouri.
Topic: RE: Support group
Hi Kelli - I'm not in Wichita, but I'm a lapbander and I try to get together with anyone who is willing whenever I'm in Wichita. I posted on the Yahoo boards that I'll be there April 12 if anyone wants to have lunch, dinner, coffee, just hang out....etc. We had a pretty good group going for awhile and then fell off through the holidays. CL even drove down from near Kansas City once!
Any of you are welcome to post here or IM me if you'd like to get together on the 12th. I'd love to get a group going again!!
