IGOTFINEIN09

Hi Ms. IGOTFINEIN09 (I love that name by the way). I am starting my journey now. I just met with my surgeon on Friday and I am excited and nervous. I currently weigh 300 lbs and am so anxious about the unknown. Can you share your story with me a little. How did you handle telling folks or not telling folks about what you were planning on doing. I am struggling with that now. My surgeon said that I have to maintain my current weight until 1 month prior to the surgery or by my insurance guidelines, I will become ineligible if I loose 1 pound. My BMI has to be 50+ and mine is currently 50.5. I am planning on having surgery in July when my new vacation cycle kicks in. How long were you out of work for the surgery? I have lots of questions...so please keep in touch.

Thanks!
