Hello all. I havent had the surgery done yet. Definitley want to I'm 5'3 and I weigh almost 300 lbs. To look at me you couldnt tell. As I;m getting older, I can feel it. By the way I'm forty years old. Need and want a change. Healthier life style. Just dont know where to begin.

I have Medicaid, my first question is does medicaid approve this type of surgery?

Hi ladies. My name is Lisette,most of my friends call me zettie. I am 36 years old, turning 37 in 14 more days. Time is going by. I have 3 kids, ages 9,7, and 4. I work in the healthcare field and I'm currently going to school for health care administration. Which i eventually hope to continue and get my RN degree. The medical field is something I love. I've been it for about 15 years. Originally from NY and currently in NC.This forum is so great. I'm calling my pcp tomorrow to schedule an appt. so i can get the ball rolling. It's good to know there are other people out there for support.

:smile:i am 36 and a mother of 3. they are the main reason i want to have the surgery. i want to be around as long as i can. the more weight i gain, the more miserable i get. i love to dance. i am ready for the change.
