KatieOkieDokie 171 Posted November 24, 2012 I am from Conover Ohio, which is about 25 mins north of Dayton. I do not have a date yet, I have to do a three month diet to get my BMI down.. so far so good! I am going to Dr. Trace Curry out of Cincinnati. Right now the only thing I have to do is lose the required weight, do the nutrition part and get my date. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrsBenson 29 Posted November 24, 2012 OMG! 60 lbs?! If I could just lose 60 lbs that easy then I wouldn't bother with the surgery. I didn't have to lose any weight. But I have heard of people having to lose 20. Never 60. Wow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
