  1. Hi everyone I'M ALSO NEW TO THIS SITE. I,m just getting started. Like got appointment tommorro to see if I can start paying for insurance on me that will cover the surgery. He told me to wait at least 6 months before asking for it to cover it. Does anyone know why? Does anyone have any suggestions for me. Do you tell the insurace before you even get it, or did I already screw this thing up ? help me someone to get started. /

It scared me, but I cant stop thinking about how better I would feel about myself. Ive struggled all my life with up and down weight Im 36 and tired of worryiing and being fat. I need a friend to talk to, someone who knows what I,m going through, Then Im made to feel guilty cause I spend my husbands and kids money if I dont get insurance on me, Help me someone who knows what Im talking about, and can help me get started in my search for happiness.
