4/14/05 Completed pre-op class and it was very informative and it brought me to reality. I am excited yet wondering if I'll be able to smash my bitter meds and get them down(yuk). Can I take care of myself and remember to take my vitamins and get in my water and protien requirements. Today I got my approval from my insurance company and was in shock. oh boy here it is. Now I have to change my relationship with the food that is slowly disabling me. I need this surgery for improved health. I geuss I didn't think it would all go so fast.

3/26/06- Hi to all you supportive people! I have enjoyed this web site very much. I have been on every diet for the past 30 years. I have lost and gained more with each attempt. I was blessed with the fat genome on my mothers side of the family. My grandmother weighed 400lbs and passed away young from diabetes complications. I have been thinking about trying this surgery for some time now and recently with my health problems thought I should give it serious consideration so I attended a seminar on 3/8/06 with my mother whom is also considering surgery. I made a appointment to see a surgeon on 4/3/06.
