Getting started

Thread Starter  

Hi everyone, I am excited. Went to my seminar tonight. I now have an appointment to see the surgeon in August. Yahooo I now feel it is official. I am beginning the start of the rest of my life. I am going next week to my pcp and get my labs and chest xray and ekg. If all goes well the way they talked tonight october or November will be having surgery. Because I am going to be self pay. So I now feel a part of the band clan.

Congratulations Renea! Just think by next year you will be Thin Outsides!!

It seems to take a bit longer sometimes than we want to wait but it is just a step at a time. I am all ready just got my 6 weeks to wait......Trying to decide if I should rob a bank to pay for mine ;)

I"ll drive the getaway car!

Hello everyone I am new also. I saw my surgeon today. My husband's insurance will pay for it, but I have to have 24 months of medical mointored weight loss attempts. I don't understand why I need 24 months when everyone else need 6mos to 12 mos. Could anyone tell me how to start a posting and how to add the cute little tracker to the bottom? Will I have to add the tracker every time I post? Oh and I don't know if I said this or not, but congradulations on taking your first step and I hope all goes well. :)
