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.  |

| Super Moderator  | I think you should talk to your surgeon about this, esp whether he recommends it or not. Or talk to your new dr since he is well informed on WLS. In any case, one year may still be too early, it probably is best to do this after you're able to eat enough food for maintenance.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | i don't understand what "water loading" is... i was instructed to drink 4 cups of liquid before eating then wait 30 minutes. then have my meal.. i then have to wait 2-3 hours before i can eat/drink anything... i typically only get breakfast, lunch/dinner one or the other then a snack later on.... just curious... is there a time when you didn't have to wait so long before you could drink after eating??? thanks.. LOL, |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Dunno Kenya- but you sure don't look like you should do anything that would make you eat less at this point.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | kenya...I think people do this to control hunger. I think you posted about losing too much and trying to stop the weight loss. You are below goal and still losing. I don't think you need to water load. I think TrulyKath does this though...she might know....can't remember.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | amina, its what "older" wls patients can do to aid in NOT overeating i guess. i dunno. there is a section on here called the pouch rules. it explains it in depth. doc, thanks. I thought it was automatic. i thought i would be proactive and just start. maybe its not for me. i will talk to my dr about it.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | its hard to know all the rules. I was curious about water loading too. I was wondering if it was too early because every month I stall for like 2 weeks sometimes longer because it is my TOM and I retain a ton of water!!! My ankles and feet and hands swell really bad. It takes me about 10 days to get rid of it. It is driving me nuts right now. I am going to drink so much water today I don't think I can help but water load. I want this weight off and this water gone!!!!!!
