Ok so I know I am stubborn enough to go it alone since the family and friends I have now are against this idea including my dr. Since she referred me into this bariActric clinic. I am sure I will have a melt down and it's good to know you have a friend who understands what you are going through. I am 44 242.6lb from 273.6lb now 5'4" and looking for a mentor/friend
As long as you can prove you have tried to lose weight on your own atleast five different ways with outcomes and have carried 100lb over for five years or more you should be good to go. I am coming up a year since I joined a bariactric group and comming up in two months for my lap band surgery. I am 44 5'4" 273.6 start point and now 242.6 3/18/11
