I am so excited. I have tried and tried to do it on my own but I just can't get the weight off. I have my first Dr. appointment on 1/6/16. I see the dietician, for the first time, on 1/26/16. I know my insurance covers the surgery and I qualify with their requirments. I'm pretty sure my Dr. has a 6 month process, which is OK since I'm a teacher and couldn't take off work to have it done. Hopefully, June or July will be my month. I am so EXCITED!!! Want to live and be able to keep up with my kids. Any info for me to think about or suggestions welcome.
