Hi Michelle, I'm from KY too. I will be going to the seminar on 6-9 at Hardin Memorial Hospital in E-town. I found out that my insurance will pay but I have to do 6 months of dieting. I think I have a few months I can count from WW, but I have to get my info together. It's nice to meet another KY gal. Welcome and good luck in your journey. Keep me posted on how you're doing. Judy

Hi Michele, I was in Louisville on Friday. Seven friends got together to Celebrate one of the friends retirement. We went shopping at the Oxmore Mall and then went out to eat at a place called something Paradise. Very retro but the food was good. Nice talking to you. Good Luck!

P.S. My daughters' name is Michelle too.

Do you mind my asking why your insurance denied you? I think it is awful when one has to self pay who needs the procedure.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
