Thanks for sharing this -- I've read about bariatric surgery and diabetes but not high cholesterol or fatty liver disease. Very interesting and informative article!

You look great! Thanks for sharing your photos, they are so inspiring!

Congratulations! Hope all goes well for you!

Good luck IsB! After initially being told that there would be no waiting period, the insurance company has come back to say they need a 6 month supervised diet. I am one month in already, but March seems so far away ....

I also have Oxford/UHC and my plan docs say, "Documentation of a motivated attempt of weight loss through a structured diet program, prior to bariatric surgery, which includes physician or other health care provider notes and/or diet or weight loss logs from a structured weight loss program for a minimum of 6 months." I am going to see my nutritionist rather than do WW partly because my ins covers nut visits but also less paperwork for me to gather!
