Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass |  New From the UK  Hi AllI just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Julia (aka Tigra1965), I'm 41 and I am pre - op for a gastric bypass. I have my date already of the 26th March 2007 and am getting nervous about it as we speak. I live in the East Yorkshire part of great britain and am a school teacher - teaching ICT to the ages of 11-18 year olds. I love my job very much but it can be both stressful and I tend to have to either sit down quite abit or am in my car going between the school sites - which are just over a mile apart. I have tried nearly every diet on the market - (ie) slimming world, weight watchers, slim fast, atkins - you name it and I have been there. At one point I was really successful and lost 6 stone on the slimming world plan, only to put it all back on again and another couple of stone on top. So surgery is my last hope really. I suppose to some my being only 248lbs is not alot - but to me its painful. I not only suffer from painful ankles when I walk, but my confidence has hit a whole new low and this is beginning to affect my relationship too. I hope to make lots of new friends on here and to be able to get much needed advice from you all. Juls xxx

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  | Hi Juls, I'm Hanadi, from Kuwait. 35 will be 36 first next month (yes April foool hehehehhe). A mother of 2 adorable angles Jude and Dana. I'm 11 months post op. I think I'm too far from reaching my goal. My Surgeon says that patients who switch from the gastric band to the bypass they tend to lose weight slower than others. I also think I'm a slow loser because of the pear shape that I have! (Big thighs/hips) and I read an article that our dear friend lisa (Fr1endly2) has posted on this board that my type lose slower, ah I'm lucky =/ I'm trying to stick to hi-protein, lo-carb diet. try to work out at least 3 times a week but sometimes I do 6 times a week! Many congrats on your date, I'm sure you'll enjoy it in here. I can tell you from a personal experience that this is the greatest support to me after my husband and my old folks. I have respect to everyone around here, very smart and helpful members. Stick around. Let me know if I can be any help (((((HUGSS))))) Hanadi |
