Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.
Well, besides the uncomfortable 'pain' over the last few days Im doing well!
Tolerating everything I have eaten so far. on the treadmill daily, just going slow and easy at the moment, 15 - 20 mins, dont want to over do it.
Still not getting much fluid in, but just sipping away, so doing ok.
since I lost my post surgery weight increase, which finally came off on friday, I have lost nearly 8lbs as of an hour ago!! Its incredible!
No regrets!
I hope everyone else is doing well.

i'm just taking it easy right now..
sipping and little walks here and there..
the pain is sometimes unbearable so hopefully in these next few days i'll be feeling a bit better.
i had the gbp, hernia repair & gallbladder removed at the same time so my pain may linger on longer than i wanted...
seems like what i'm eating is basically whatever i mix my pills in?????
i am doing good with liquids though......
thank you all for your wonderful support throughout, i know i am a part of a group that truly cares.
i'll be on when i can,
LOL,

Sagee: awesome to hear! keep strong and you will be there in no time! how many sleeps to go? 9? how are you feeling?

yes 9 sleeps and i feel good as of thus far keeping my self busy helps ALOT.. How are you holding up Jen? did you have open or laprascopic? Im having open.. i know im in for some MAJOR pain but its worth it in the long run...
oops sorry thats 7 more sleeps YEAYYYYYY its sooooner then i thought WHOOT i cant wait but im sure i'll be a huge bundle of nerves the night before and i'll be here talking to you all
Well my pain level is not bad, But I have had a few bouts of the runs. Have to keep an eye on that. Have not been sleeping well but getting some. humm My drain hole that was doing well for the past few days so I trusted it and put on my nice pink sleep shirt and then poof drain all over me. Thanks Girls BTW for the heads up cause I still have a large towel on my bed or it would have been a mess more then it was. It seems what I can drink this hour I cant stomach the next. I do beleive my runs yesterday was from my milk and I no you ladies told me sometimes milk isnt good at first but I wanted to get in some protein. I tried my nectar yesterday and it was ok in small amts but still has that after taste of whey protein yet and since I can now smell every little thing that was in any of the cups in this house i cant take it. I had to go out and get some new cups yesterday. Today is mixing small amts of chrystal light with water and seeing how the diff flavors go. But I do feel I will be living on ice pops. I dont start puree till saturday and well I just cant tolerate soup I did over the weekend but now its gotta be strictly clears for me for now. I know dont worry to much right now about protein just keep hydrated. But other then that I am happy my pain level in my belly is good cause i have a muscle tension headach to beat all. But there is a lot of other stresses here that happened right before my surgery. My brother and his wife broke up for good he found her with another man so its been really hard for him around here. Yeah well you guys know me.. When it rains it pours and my whole family is like that..So I take my good things to heart.. Thanks for caring and I will check in later on..
