I have read alot, and want to make sure I understand. I know the band keeps you from eating alot, but how does it keep you from being hungry?

I just went to my educational seminar and was wondering why ya'll did not choose the vertical sleeve. I know why I am not choosing by-pass, but the vertical sleeve is interesting me. Just curious. Babette

Just curious again. When we got married I was large. My husband is attracted to large women. We have discussed how we will need to make time for each other as I change, because any time one partner grows or changes, it effects the other. Has any one gone through weight loss where the partner was no longer attracted to them or the person's personality changed after weight loss to where the other person could not deal with it? I know that if you truly love someone you work through it and yada yada yada.... I know I will be more out going. And yes, my dress will change. But I will be a faithful "ho". Ha! I want to be a cool modern Mom thats all. Thanks.

Hey! I am so interested in your city! I look up pictures of some of the attractions (extravagant attractions) for my children to see. I would love for you to send some pictures of your city to me. babettegrffn@yahoo.com if it is okay. I am a sociology buff and love different cultures. How has your weight loss been? Babette

I am 39, a special ed teacher in NE mississippi, mother of 3 young busy kids, married to truck driver, and scarred to death about the preop diet.

For weight loss and muscle building, which is best, soy or whey? Thanks

Is that after insurance? Becky told me $26,000. I have talked with their office also. I must have 20% of that upfront. Thanks, Babette

Would you mind telling me how much the surgery cost? I have to have 20% upfront. Thanks, Babette

Has anyone gotten approved through creditcare with a low credit score?

I am researching docs and costs. would love to hear from you. I am from Houston and have noticed MS costs are extreme. Babette

I have a foreclosure due to the subprime mess with housing loans. We were able to buy our house thru private party due to knowing our salary/debt ratio. It was our neighbor. Another thing is that we have paid off $25,000 of debt in last few years and have not gotten back in more debt. Therefore we have no "revolving" credit. I would not think many people would have high scores any more with jobless rates. My family went on vacation in May to San Antonio. My mthr-n-law lives in Live Oak. We loved it! It is a great city. Babette

I am doing research out of Mississippi because of cost. Since you are in Atlanta, Anniston, AL would not be tooo far. Anniston's self pay is @12,900. The doc's name is Freeman. It is Freeman and co. Just a thought. Babette

Just wondering. Oxford -26,000 Tupelo the same. Alabama averages 12,000. What gives? We are poor and obese! You would think someone would give us a break. What are the other costs around the state? Babette
