Hi! I just wanted to welcome you to the boards. This surgery is a miracle for most of us--and it will be for you too!! You'll be in my prayers. Take care! Good luck at the doctor.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
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.

Thanks so much...you all are giving me the strength to continue on (even though I have to at this point...ha ha)!

I really haven't set a goal for myself. I have struggled with losing that I gave up thinking about it. But now, my doctor wants me between 100-125 which I think is too low. I would appreciate reaching 125-135. I look at pants sizes sometimes rather than weight. I would like to be in a 7-8, but I would settle for a size 10.

I use to be a size 3 slim in high school. I use to roller skate competively and practice no less than 5 days a week and weighted 129 lbs. I had some good looking legs at that time. I would love to continue skating for recreation, but all our rinks closed up. I keep thinking about opening one. Update it. So many rinks look like the 60-70s era yet.

What kinds of activities do you all do? I have a daughter who is over weight and the thought of a treadmill would bore her. I can't wait until summer so we can go hiking in the woods.

Thanks to crafther......it was an inspiration when I read your comment. Knowing that there is someone with like issues succeeding was reassuring.

Yes, I did the right thing by finding this website.

Wendy

By the way, how do you post your picture? I have one in my profile, but how do you attach it to your name?

Well, Friday 12/15/06 I had my first 6 week appointment. I am down 25 lbs. I was sooooo surprised!

Thanks for the encouragement!

Congatulations on your weightloss.
Take things one day at a time, and stick to your surgeon's instructions, and you'll make it to where you need to be.
Keep up the good work, (((((((HUGS))))))
