I am on the liquid diet now, have done the psych test and now awaiting clearance from a cardiologist and i will get definate date....looks like it will be end of July.

Jazz fest used to be a wonderfully small and inexpensive experience but it has grown so large now, i think they are speaking of expanding it out more days to help with the overcrowding. I lived in New Orleans all my life until Hurricane Katrina, now I live in Diamondhead Ms. it's still on the coast though.

I hope to lose about 80 lbs. I had to gain 5 lbs to get in the weight/bmi that would be accepted by my insurance company, it took me 5 months to get them to agree to pay for it. It was worth it to save having to self pay though.

my BMI is low too, it took alot to convince my insurance company to pay for mine

Good Luck Tes! I have my insurance approval and my appt with my surgeon is Tomorrow. I also on the coast. I will keep in touch with you to give you encouragement!

I am in same situation as you. I have been on every diet out there, some more than once. Lose it and then regain it. I was turned down twice by my insurance company because I was not heavy enough. But what is heavy to one person and another, can be quite different
