I WAS TIRED OF CARRING AROUND ALL THIS EXTRA WEIGHT AND NOT FEELING GOOD.  I FOUND A FANTASTIC SURGEON IN SAN DIEGO, DR. JULIE ELLNER, WHO I HIGHLY RECOMMEND AND ALSO TAKES AETNA INSURANCE.  I MET WITH DR. ELLNER ONCE A MONTH FOR THREE MONTHS, THEN SUBMITTED MY INSURANCE FORMS TO AETNA, THEY DENIED ME THE FIRST TIME, BUT DR. ELLNER FOUGHT FOR ME AND I WAS APPROVED JUST ONE WEEK LATER.  MY SURGERY WAS LAST MONDAY, JULY 19, 2010 AND SINCE MY TWO WEEK LIQUID ONLY DIET PRIOR TO SURGERY UNTIL TODAY I HAVE LOST 23 POUNDS!  MY GOAL IS TO LOOSE 60 MORE.  I'M EXCITED TO WEAR A PAIR OF JEANS AND A SOLID TEE SHIRT:)
