I Need Help!! How Do I Get Started??

My advice is to first talk to your regular physician. There should be some level of history with weight issues and depending on how much overweight your insurance may require additional comorbid conditions (diabetes, heart problems, sleep apnea, etc.). If you don't have insurance you may want to start checking into financing for medical procedures.

I think your doc may be able to recommend a surgeon, or there are places on this sites main page where you can get information on surgeons. Most of the surgeons require that you attend at least one informational seminar.

There is a ton of information out there, this site is a terrific resource!

Good luck!

Pollyanna gave great advice. You also if you have insurance could check out to see if they cover it and what requirements are for the coverage. The biggest hardest part of anything is taking that first step... Good luck!
