I was going to attend a seminar at Brooklyn bariatric unfortunately it was canceled do to Sandy (hurricane)...Also haven't had good feed back in regards to BB center... Then the hospital my pcp is affiliated with doesn't have any appointment until Feb 2013. It feels like a life time. Thanks for your motivation... Fyi I can't open your pictures.

@Wdrake I agree!! It upset me when my husband give is opinion as if he has been in my shoes..

About the natural way my husband said the same... my husband eats everything and doesn't brain weight I watch him eat and gain 10 pounds... Lol I didn't get my surgery put I will... For sure! I have tried it ALL and It isn't a enough just loss inches and gain more weight.. It is get discouraged... I know my husband won't be to happy about get wls but it's not for him it all for me... That has to be your mind set... THIS IS YOUR GOAL!

That were your FAITH comes in BELIEVE that God will deal with any complications... I have found myself in bad situations with my husband of 11yrs but if I'm sick or ill he steps up... Believe that God will handle your husband...

So sorry about you situation... I hope and pray that God gives you the straight to deal with your husband... The sleeve is to HELP you, it will not change his behavior or make him love you more or any different.... So make sure that this choice is based on what is best for YOU ....Financial problems can bring the worst out of any marriage. Not to mention the stress of trying to start your own business... Plz pray ask God for a better understanding of you husband, marriage, children and your surgery... You already have your surgery date, that's God will!! I think he is insecure about the outcome eventually he will get over it.. God Bless.

Amen...What a mighty God!

You look wonderful!

Plz share your experience with Health 1st Medicaid in NY...Thanks

Hi everyone, My name is Maria I'm 39 yrs old... I have always struggled with my weight in the 5 years I've been watching what I eat exercising dieting doing everything I can do to bring down my weight... My current weight is 230 and I am 5'5 I suffer from high blood pressure and recently was diagnosed with diabetes.. On Monday I will attend my 1st orientation for WLS... recently I've been feeling tired and nauseous and very ill my pcp did some blood work in which she found my cortisol levels to be low...Question is will this affect me being approved for WLS? Plz help

Ok, so apparently my neurologist says the test is normal being that I had to take some meds post-op blood work..

Thank for replying... In my case the low levels have caused weight gain.
