Default My 3 week Post-Op appointment

Today was my 3 week post op appointment, everything went well, I have lost 15 pounds prior to my authorization for surgery, 16 pounds during my 14 day liquid diet and 11 pounds since surgery with a total of 42 pounds since I started this process 6 months ago, I have felt great since I woke up after surgery. Now I do not go back to the doctor until my 3 month post-op.

Thanks for all the insights it is amazing what we can learn from reading other peoples post and experiences!

Georgie

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
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.

Georgie, I was so impressed with Dr. Chute and the gang there at Minneapolis Bariatric that I let him do my wife! How do you like Liz?

CT~ I only see Liz one time in February then Dr. Chute started seeing patients at Ridgeview Medical Center in Waconia & Chaska which is much closer to my home so, I switched clinics (I wouldn't have done this without Dr. Chute) so, I had my surgery in Waconia I was Gastric By Pass Patient #5 in Waconia ever. The staff is equally as good in Chaska (they are in the new 212 Medical Building right off Highway 212 and Chestnut Street)! They also hold support group meetings there twice a month.

I wish we could get up to those support group meetings, but it's a little too far from the Owatonna area.

I read about all the crazy nutritionists others have seen, and then I think about Liz, and I'm just glad that Dr. Chute knows how to hire good people!
