Working on a better life for me and my family!



Recommended Posts

Just wanted to introduce myself, new to this whole experience and just starting the process. Have my finances worked out insurance will not pay, it is an exclusion in our policy. :sad:

Have my seminar scheduled for Sept 16. And looking for general advise and experiences from anyone that wants to share. :o

I weigh an embarrasing 270 lbs, which is huge for my 5"2' frame. It is becoming increasingly more difficult to get around and enjoy the precious time I have with my family. Anything will help and I am looking forward to becoming part of the LBT Family.

Thanks for everything.....:P

Hi nduke39!

Sorry to hear about the insurance exclusion. That sucks.

I'm not banded yet, but I've met some great people here. They share so much info and it helps you feel like you are not alone.

I understand feeling huge and having difficulty enjoying family time. I'm not much taller than you (5"3', but I tell myself I'm 5"4' when I stretch :laugh:). I hope you get some good info here just as I have.

Good luck on your journey!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
