As I was approaching 40 years old and pondering the next diet to get me back to my 'normal weight', I realized that I've spent the better part of my life dieting and regaining. My initial thought was that I didn't need anything as drastic as WLS because I could do it myself but the drivers of weight issues are as deeply rooted as other addictions. I decided to call my insurance company to see if it was covered out of curiosity and it went from there. I was set up with meeting dates with the NUT, PSY and group sessions. My husband has been very supportive so I decided to go for it or I'd regret for the next ten years of diets. I'm getting sleeved on 6-23. Yaaaay!!!
