I.ve done all the classes, appointments and eval but can't lose the weight. how did others lose the weight? I did lose 12 lbs. but put it back on. I'm sure it was because I got scared about the surgery. trying to wrap my head around it now. Now I need to lose 24 lbs and want to lose it as quickly as possible. Any advice?

Thanks for the advice. I feel that I'm sabatoging myself because of the fear of the surgery.

hi! thanks for the welcome! the info you sent was good. i need to write these questions down, because i always forget them when i'm at the dr's.

my name is linda. i've had the introductory class, and 2 appointments, i've registered for the 6 nutritional classes ($160), have 3 appointments set for next month, have to have a sleep study done, waiting for approval from my pcp for that.i have to lose 23lbs. my surgeon is dr. goldenburg from cmc hospital in manchester. i have medicare (primary ins.) and anthem (2nd). i have so many questions, but i've been reading the posts and have had some questions answered. do i need pre-approval from medicare? what is the recovery time for the surgery? thank you
