Thanks for your reply.Congrats on your last month. Hopefully this dr will require only a list too.Im most worried about that factor. I talked to my insurance company(bcbs) the day after the seminar.My insuance does not require the 6mos weight loss period.They only require a bmi over 35 with co morbidities or 40 with proof of weight loss tried. I wish my appt was sooner so I wouldnt be wrecking my brain about this.

Congrats on the weightloss so far. Im far away from getting my surgery date. I just went to the seminar this past week.My first consult is 3/29 which seems FOREVER away. I realized that I only have one person (my bff) that I could tell about this process without them judging me. My mom lost abt 100 lbs naturally a few years back and she has kept it off but I on the other hand cannot keep 15lbs off to save my life. I know once I start this journey I would love to have her support but she would view this procedure as taking the easy way out. She has been so suppportive for everything else in my life but I guess I will keep her in the dark about this.Its a little easier to do this because she lives about 300 miles away. I hope one day both our moms will have a turnaround. *fingers crossed* ps.Keep up the good work.

Congrats and best wishes to you!!!!! I cant wait til my surgery but I have a lonnnnnnnnggggggggggggg process infront of me. I just went to the free seminar this week. Keep us updated.

Congrats ......Im still in the beginning process of this whole thing and this process seems to take foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. I know you must be excited to actually have a date set. Im trying to eat healthier too just so I can start preparing myself bc I have a big fear that im still going to crave the same foods. So keep up the good work so I can stay inspired.

Wow....Congrats on the next steps!!! I attended a seminar on Monday (3/5/12) and I wanted to have the surgery on Tuesday!! LoL I have my first consult on 3/26/12 which seems forever away. I wish I could I could speed up the process. I hope to read more of your blogs after each step so I know what to prepare for. Hope to read more soon
