Guest zaksmom Posted August 9, 2005 Hi! I just recently started my "permanent" weight loss journey. Here's some info on me: I've done the psych evaluation and met with the dietitian. I'm scheduled for my first surgery class next week. I see Dr. Nagle at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago for my second visit on 8/10/05. All of my information should be sent to the insurance company right after. I'm presently 248 lbs. I want to get to 150ish. Employed Full-Time Full-Time College Student (3.8 GPA Yipee!) Wonderful husband and three year old. Great parents who have helped out soooo much! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anwyn 0 Posted August 10, 2005 Good luck with your "red tape" stage. The surgery will be here before you know it! Full-time college, full-time job, full-time 3-year old? When will you find time for surgery?! :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest zaksmom Posted August 10, 2005 Hello! Met with Dr. Nagle today (great guy) and we decided that I'm going to do the gastric bypass. I'm a little squeamish about having a foreign body in my system. :sick Guess it's time to go back to obesityhelp.com. It was a blast! Zaksmom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zoe 6 Posted August 16, 2005 Zaksmom, if you change your mind again, stop on by. You can still stop by even if you go for the RNY. We don't discriminate! Whatever you choose, good luck from another Chicagoan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
