Almost There and New to VST...

So, I switched surgeons. Dr. Kevin McGill at Piedmont Hospital in Atlanta is wonderful!! Just met him this week. I had done my 6 month physician supervised diet, psyche eval, Pulmonary eval, PCP medical necessity letter and 5 year weight history. They are submitting to insurance this week!! Yippee

I know I have to have an upper G.I. but other than that not sure.

I began gaining weight after my hysterectomy 10 years ago and never stopped gaining. Stressors in my life didn't help. I am currently babysitting until I can find a sleep Tech job. I finished college last September, drove 1.5 hours one way for 1.5 years. Glad that is over but finding a job is even harder. I look forward to the support from this forum. I am registered with ObesityHelp too but was looking for a little more focused on the sleeve. Thanks
