  1. sorry folks, been off site for awhile! I am finalizing the hurdles thru my insurance company. 2 more months of weight monitoring and a cardiology check for the ticker. For the most part people are supportive but there are people (who are predispose thin) tell me to my face that I am weak and that lap surgery is an excuse for people to go the easy way out. I look at them in disbelief and realize that when I lose the weight; they lose an individual that they can make fun of or ridicule behind my back. I feel sorry for them now but all my life I wanted their approval. Go figure!!lol

    Hi

    Hello everyone!! Happy Holidays to all. I am six months away from my surgery. The final straw that may me decide to get the surgery was my 2 airline trips(2008) this year. It was the most uncomfortable and embarrising for me (5'11'' at 370lbs) The seats are for 175lbs and I was not cutting it. "Enough is Enough... no more excuses or extra airline extension belts":wink_smile:
