Personally I don't want a pouch and my stomach to stop functioning the way its suppose to. I don't want to worry about my stoma being blocked and I don't want to eat a thimble of food at a time. I chose the DS because its so much closer to how normal size people eat. ~~* AJ *~~ Age 37 5'8'' Post op 7/24/01 Open BPD/DS self pay - Dr Baltasar -Alcoy Spain 07/24/01 BMI 64 415.1 08/06/01 BMI 59 390.2 -24.9 lbs! -10.75 inches 08/16/01 BMI 58 387.0 -27.9 lbs! -11.25 inches 08/24/01 BMI 58 386.5 -28.7 lbs! -15.5 inches My personal website: www.WLS4AJ.homestead.com Check out the Bellingham Support Group at WWW.WLSBellingham.homestead.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 29, 2001 Report Share Posted August 29, 2001 Dee, I think you are confusing God's will with the will of your insurance company. Don't just lie down and let them buldoze over you - that is what they are counting on. We have to take a united front against the gready and ignorant insurance companies.
