I am from the Charlotte area. Anyone near by?

Great!! How's it going? How long did it take to get approved by insurance for you?

I'm with Dr. Gersin

Awesome!! How's it going so far? I won't be sleeved until next year. My supervised diet won't be over until January && hopefully I can get a March date for when I'm on Spring Break. What a way to spend vacation right O_o

Yay!! Have you been sleeved yet? If so how's it going?

Sending many prayers your way!!

Hey all!! A little about myself: I'm 22 years old && have always dealt with weight issues. I graduated high school in 2008 && have since gained 40 pounds O_o!! Tell me about it, right? I honestly have NO idea how I've gained all this weight. Last year I went up to 251 lbs at only 5'3". I am now down to 235 lbs. In 2007 I was 218 lbs. If I could I would blame the difference on college but that's not the problem. I've met with my surgeon, Dr. Gersin, from Carolinas Weight Management in Charlotte, NC. I've gone throughout my psych eval && met with my nutritionist. I have my exercise eval on 12/4 && hope to be sleeved March 2013. Does anyone have any tips/suggestion? Or just want to converse?

Oh ok I have to do the 4 month program

Thank you so much&&to reiterate what's been said it is NEVER too late. You are doing something now that will impact your health forever in a positive way&&that deserves an applause
