Topic: RE: BCBS Alliance Select and WLS
Hi, there are several surgeons in Omaha. There is Dr. Thomas White, Dr. McBride, and Dr. Anthone. If you go to the Bariatric Surgeon icon on OH you can get the contact info. Mona

Topic: RE: Speaking of McBride
I originally had Dr. Sudan before he left and creighton was engulfed by chaos. I was going to see Dr. Mcbride for my post op visits, she also does the robotics like sudan does. I ended up going to Dr. Hung in lincoln only because it's closer and I've seen him before. Good luck whoever you end up chosing.
Topic: BCBS Alliance Select and WLS
My sister-in-law lives in Denison Iowa and is looking for Network physician in Omaha that does WLS. Can anyone help? Insurance said there were none but I know that some just show up as surgeons and not bariactric surgeons.
Topic: Speaking of McBride

Topic: RE: Support meetings
I need a good swift kick in the butt to keep me going. Of course hubby wanted lasagna from Valentinos for supper.
I went and bought two chickens gonna make me some good protein meals for the next few days.
I am getting my family motivated to go to the Y with me. I hate going alone. I will be glad when the weather gets warmer so I can start walking to work.
I need to lose at least 50 lbs more, I am not gonna accept where I am at.
See ya at the next meeting.

Topic: RE: Support meetings
I know we didn't have the same surgery but regardless, it doesn't do yourself any good to beat yourself up over it. I've been on a carb binge lately (boy it's so hard to stop once you start because then you crave them) and the weight loss has completely ceased. So, I have to force myself to get back on track, I'm not about to tell myself I'm done losing weight. I tell myself "Get er done lol".
Topic: Support meetings
If anyone lives in the Kearney area it would be well worth the drive to attend the Kearney support group meetings. Linda does an excellent job hosting/leading the meetings. I drive 40 miles one way to attend the meetings, I know others drive further then I do.
I am really at a lull in my weight loss and tend to get discouraged right now. Christmas was a really bad time for me, I did give in to then temptations of cookies and eggnog and rum. I made myself go to the last meeting even though I know I had a weight gain.
