i was referred by my primary care dr. to KU med center for weight loss surgery. I know alot of people who have done it. I read up on it. talked to a couple of people who have done it. I went to a infomation session and it was very informative. that was around the first of october(2009). I have schedualed my nutrition consult and my psych consult the following week. So now all i have to do is go to 2 support group meetings which are coming up soon and then i can make an appt with the dr. This entire process is going right along pretty easy. I expect my insurance will approve it with no problems. I am 5'2" and weight about 215-220 depending on the day. so i'm right around the 40bmi that is required. I also have hypertension. So we will see what happens in the days that follow.
