Topic: Roll call
Okay my Oklahoma friends: This board has been dead for awhile but I bet there are plenty of us that check in often to see if anyone else has posted. So let's hear from you....
How are you enjoying this great Autumn weather? I am getting more walking/ running time. What are you enjoying? Any favorite cooler weather recipes to share?

Topic: RE: Plastics and Healthchoice
Thanks! You do as well. Nice to know you still check in now and again. I get on about once a month or so.
Topic: RE: Plastics and Healthchoice
I will let you know the outcome of my prior authorization filing. Sawan felt it would be approved. Another of my physicians wrote a letter to file stating medical necessity as well... Have fingers crossed!
Topic: RE: Is it worth it?
We've all been there..every one of us, I think. It is totally normal to feel that way. We would think something was wrong if you didn't feel that way.
I would do it all over again in a flash. I would just have done it sooner. Stay strong and good luck.

I don't know either, but I would love to find out. I need everything lifted!
Topic: RE: Reboot Diet?
Count me in on the ashamed to go back in to the office. I haven't gained a bad amount, but I want to "nip it in the bud."
For 2 weeks, it's all supplements like bars and shakes. There's a certain combination.. It's to throw us back into Ketosis. I started day 1 today. I chose to go with nutritionist supervised for accountability.
Since Jess is no longer there, and Chris and I have problems getting dates straight, I saw Stephanie. She's great! She also didn't make me feel bad either. I did enough of that to myself.

Topic: RE: Medicare people: How much did you come out of pocket for your surgery?
My surgery will also be picked up by Medicare and will be at Norman Regional Hospital. They want $550 up front and $550 in payments for my part of the costs. Hope that helps! Wish me well. My surgery will be on November 8th with Dr. Keith.
Topic: RE: Dr. Keith or Dr. Broussard? Bypass or Sleeve?
Thanks to all of you for your considerate responses! It is nice to get a different perspective from different people who have been through it. My biggest concern is regain after the honeymoon period. My mother had the Lap Band and lost about 100 pounds, but regained much of it. I don't want that to be me! DS is the surgery that intrigued me the most but with no one in OK perforrming the surgery, I worry about aftercare and such with an out of state doctor.
I think that I will attend both seminars as suggested. Thanks again for all of your help and advice!
Feel free to "friend" me.
