Default Hey, From Ann


My name is Ann and i am from South Carolina.

First off.....I can't spell or write good at all.

But here goes.....I had to try to lose weight six months before my Ins. would pay. I weighed 458 and lost 10 pounds on my own. When i went in the hospital Nov. 28, 2005 I weighed 448. Nov. 29, 2006 i weighed 298 pounds. I don't have to go back to the doctor till this year Nov. 29. My scales here at home weighs me different everytime so i don't know my weight now.

My one regret is i did not take measurements before. I just know i could not reach my feet. I had to have a sock putter-on-er. I now can put my socks on and reach all-most all of my body and take care of myself. It was so hard to ask somebody to help me do the simplest things.

I still have to walk with a walker and i still use my wheel chair. The best part is everything is getting easyer.

My goal is to walk with my two grandsons very soon.

Till next time......Ann

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Hi Ann. I dont spell worth a darn either so dont worry about it. Im new here to. I havnt had surgery yet. Im on the road to it. Your impressive to have made it the way you have. Im just now starting to wrestle with my self on doing certian things for myself. Im tall and im sure that is the only reason I have managed this long. You found a great place to come visit I will tell you that now. There are alot of really sweet ladies here and help you all they can and make you feel so welcome. I find myself comming to this board daily just to see what is going on.

Thanks everybody

Boy! there sure is a lot to read on this site. Everybody has helped me so much. I am still trying to figuer what to do now.

I do have a weird ????.......How do you sip? Yep that's what i said....do you sip sit the glass down or do you hold the glass and sip one sip right after the other. My biggggest problem is drinking. My first six months i was in and out of the hospital with a kidney infection. It has been allmost 16 months and I'm doing better but still scared when it comes to drinking.

Ann
