Just want to introduce myself. My name is Brittney and I'm 25. Been running my butt off completing all my blood work, phyc eval, dietician, sleep studies ect. Got my approval from insurance finally and my surgery is scheduled for march 11!! So happy to finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I've had a lot of ups and even more downs but I just kept pushing to get to this point. I'm 5'0" and 270lbs. I'm shooting to get down to 130lbs but would love to get to 120! I have an overwhelming amount of weight to loose and I'm fearing failure. I'm also fearing the reality of extra skin! Glad to have found this forum
