Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  Did Anyone Have To Lose A Certain Amount Of Weight Before Surgery? Well So Far I've Been Dieting For Eight Days . Doing Well With What I Eat And Drink And I Excercise. So Far I've Lost 2lbs But My Concern Is There A Certain Amount That They 're Expecting Me To Lose In Eight Weeks Is There Anyone That Had To Lose A Certain Amount Before Surgery? I Know That Each Surgeon Is Differnet But I Just Wanted To Have Some Type Of Ideal.

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.  |

| My doctor has not required me to lose anything as well. I have just sent an email to my doctor asking if I should loose or do a liquid diet. I will let you know what his response is. I have actually gained since I last saw my doctor. I have been exercising and I am feeling discouraged. My surgery is December 4. |

They also want a 2-year committment to follow up with their case-managed postoperative program. I don't have a problem with it. It is not an inexpensive surgery and if they are going to invest in me by paying for it, I want to show them that I am committed and have as healthy of a postoperative course as I can so they can know that they have invested wisely. Besides, it makes it easier on me, supposedly, and easier for the surgeon, so it is a win/win/win situation all the way around. Last edited by Rachael : 11-14-2007 at 09:48 PM. | |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | You will have to ask your Dr that question. Do you know if your insurance requires weight loss? If I was you personally I would ask the Drs office and find out with the insurance. Somtimes they work hand in hand. |

| My doctor requires EVERYONE to do a 2 week liquid diet of only 800 calories a day before surgery. For me, I'm expected to lose 9 pounds which can easily be done in those two weeks on that low of a caloric intake. It's all about reducing the size of your liver. Will I be complaining during those two weeks? Absolutely...but it'll make my surgery a hell of a lot safer. That's what matters most to me.
