Congrats on making that decision, I too feel the same good luck with your journey ahead.

Thank you very much. Right now I am just waiting for my PCP to send over where I was on Adipex for a year from 2009 to 2010 and I hope this will help tremendously. I am a little nervous but know this is the best thing for my life. My surgeon wants me to drop 84 pounds which I am perfectly fine with. It is just my prayer that i have the surgery before June since I have a huge vacation in July.

be proud of your decision to better health...i just had my surgery on wednesday and was questioning my decision up until the end. i am 5'2 1/2 and at my heaviest i was 250 lbs. when my primary dr told me this morning that i could stop my diabetes meds due to the surgery which has lowered my glucose levels i knew i made the right decision:) all the best to you...

You ladies are such inspiration to me. Right now I am just waiting to get the letter from my PCP that stated my year on Adipex and hope once the surgeon submits it that it will be approved by Tricare. The great part is that my hubby will be don't the procedure as well once he completes his six month WLS. So, we are both making a decision to do this. But I personally thank you!
