Hi everyone, I'm Kelly ... been hanging out here for a few months. I've read so many of your posts & blogs and have learned so much from all of you ! I appreciate everyone sharing so openly and honestly. I met with one surgeon in May & will meet with another surgeon next week and then will make my final decision for who to use.
In the mean time I called my insurance co (BC/BS) and found out the requirements for coverage. I also met with my PCP and she is very supportive of my decision & gave me a copy of the diabetic diet to use for the 6 mo supervised diet. So one month down & five to go - I'm shooting for a Xmas vacation surgery/recovery. I'm a teacher and will be off work for 10 days & will be able to take another week or two off if needed.
One question for now .... I go tomorrow for the first month weigh in and I'm pretty sure I haven't lost any weight this month ... It was so strange but it was if I went on a feeding frenzy when it hit me I'm really on the road to doing this. What do you think about me asking for an appetite suppressant for the remaining 5 months?? I'm fearful I won't be successful on the supervised diet. Did anyone else use a diet pill during that time? Thanks again everyone!!! Much love!! Kelly
