Hi- I have lots of size 20 pants from Gap, Old Navy, and Fashion Bug. I'm looking to sell them to someone who needs them. Some pairs still have the tags on and the others were only worn maybe once- I wasn't in the size for long. I am short so nearly all pairs are either "short" or have been hemmed to a 28" in seam. Please let me know if you are interested and we can work out a deal. I can send pics as well.

I should have also said I will give them away if you pay for the shopping or trade them as well.

Hi! I also have a bmi of 43 and just started the 4th month of my 6 month waiting period. My dr advised me to lose 5-10 lbs before surgery-20 at most as to not go below a bmi of 40. She said it probably be ok if I lost more but could result in an insurance headache.

I'm doing this same exact program and had the same question! In only 1 month in so my surgery should be in February- I hope it actually happens within a month of completing the program! The waiting period is so hard. Right now in working on giving up diet coke- I was terribly addicted but have been off it since 9-1. I was going to stop drinking with my meals starting 10/1. You are the only person I've heard post about the I can change program besides myself! It doesn't seem very common

Hi All- This is my first post and I'm just starting the journey. I'm very excite an also nervous! Due to my insurance I need to do the 6 month "I can change program" and I was just wondering if anyone had experience with it? I go for my initial surgery consult this Friday. Lastly- I was wondering how people deal with family? My husband is supportive, but he is nervous and doesn't want me to have surgery(I'm 32 and we have 2 toddlers). I know he loves me but I think he's afraid of me taking this small risk of surgery. My parents will not be very supportive so I don't plan on telling them until I am about 3 weeks pre op. I know at that point they will be supportive. I have about 100lbs to lose and can't wait to just do it! Sorry if this is a rambling first post- I just didn't know where to start and I'm hoping this board will be a good resource!

Hi again- Yes I am from Mass actually- is that the only place people are quoted to do "I can change"? I'm looking forward to getting the first phone call and starting! I'm a teacher so the 6 month wait isn't so bad- I'm hoping to schedule surgery to coincide with me feb vacation. I recovered great from 2 c sections so I'm hoping my recovery from this is just as good!

Thanks for your responses! I just faxed in the form for I Can Change today. Do you mind me asking in your experience- how long did it take for them to call you after you faxed in your form?
