Guest guest Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 I was in the Obesity Help Chatroom and a woman there wanted to argue with me that Kaiser does the Lap Band and has for sometime. I told her I had my lap rny at Kaiser Fremont and they definitely don't do it. I am glad to hear I am not nuts, well maybe a little, but I was sure they wouldn't do the lap band....Good luck to you Jane!!! --- Jane wrote: > Just wanted to say, hi and let you all know I got my > Kaiser packet today.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 actually I was asked on the 31st of Aug if I wanted the lap rny or the band....They decided to start offering it to their patients at Fremont Debi Ernser wrote: I was in the Obesity Help Chatroom and a woman there wanted to argue with me that Kaiser does the Lap Band and has for sometime.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Hi, My name is and I live in Milpitas. I did my orientation August 13 at the Fremont Kaiser and I got my packact then. I've been looking for someone who's at about the same place in this process as I am and lives in the same area. I am scheduled for my first consult this Thursday (step 8) and I'm half-way to my pre-op goal weight and it's been really tough. I've lost 15 pounds in 6 weeks doing Craig. On top of trying to lose the weight I've quit smoking (almost 3 months) gave up sunflower seeds and started to exercise 5 times a week. I wonder if you'd be interested in " talking " ? Thought you'd like to know that when I was at the orientation the surgeon said Kaiser will start doing lap bands in October of this year. Hope to hear from you!

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 Hi , My orientation was on the 19th of Aug. I too have lost since orientation. I live in Modesto, so we aren't close. Too bad. I had my surgeons consult 2 wks ago. I have 5 lbs to go to set up the psych and 5 more from that to set up the surgery. I have been doing all the preop tests etc. My surgeon is Dr. Chu. I really liked her a lot. You are doing great!! congrats on stopping smoking. That must be really tough. I gave up diet coke and caffiene and I have been on a low carb diet. Keep me posted, we can still talk even though we are not close. --On Angel Wings " St.Denis " wrote: Hi, My name is and I live in Milpitas.

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 Hi Jane, Welcome! I had Laproscopic Roux-En-Y on 5/3/06. I could have returned to work after 2 weeks, but I had a complication (pancreatitis) which rehospitalized me for 2 weeks and then 2 weeks home recovery. So, in all, I was out of work for 6 weeks. However, most go back after 2 weeks from my understanding. Looking forward to getting to know you. Kaiser Packet Just wanted to say, hi and let you all know I got my Kaiser packet today. Yippee. I have my consultation this weekend, I'm hoping all goes well. By the looks of it, looks like Kaiser only performs the Roux-Y G.B., and not Lap?? But supposely you lose more weight. I don't care, I want to be a loser! Question though the ones that have gotten the surgery how long did it take to recoop? Smiles.. --------------------------------- Talk is cheap. Use Yahoo!
