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.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  Im with you Kenay. But once I have some it seems the rest of the day I want more and more. Its bad. So when I really want some I try to eat some protein with it like a cheese stick or something. But yes some days the carb monster wants to take over.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I'm not sure I've ever craved "carbs" specifically -- I've had so few actual cravings since the surgery but I have had them though usually its for salt. |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | im not sure but i think it means i need to eat something at that time of the day. i usually do lunch around 12 and then thats it til dinner.unless i have a snack, but if i dont that is a long stretch. maybe i could have shake or something in there....i should probably eat up until 3.30 or 4 i think since i dont eat dinner til 6 or 6.30. who knows...one of these days i will figure this out! lol.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I only get cravings later at nite, especially if I am bored or watching TV. I think you should have something between lunch and dinner, but not carbs, they are from the devil himself. I have to have a snack between lunch and dinner myself or I am so hungry at dinner that I eat too fast and get sick.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | Yeah Kenya I Really Think You Should PLAN On Packing A Snack With You For The After Noons. That Is To Much Of A Long Stretch. Whether Its A Shake Or Some Sort Of Snack. If You Bring Somthing You Wont Give In To Somthing Bad That U Can Buy At Work. Cheese And Crackers Are Good 1/2 Banana Protein Chips Are Excellent!!! Apple Protein Shake Etc Etc Etc It Will Help Ya Till Dinner Time

To prevent this carb hunger, eat at set intervals if possible, and if you do crave, then get in protein along with the carb to prevent further craving, because raising the blood sugar level, then have it come down quickly again (which happens because sugar is absorbed rapidly, then metabolized quickly) will cause another bout of carb craving. To prevent this, you need to slow down the absorbtion and metabolization, which is what protein helps do.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Yes Kenya I do get this as well around 2pm espically if its a busy day and I dont get to eat right...I also get shaky and dizzy again my body telling me that my blood sugar is low.
