Hi Lisa, I am in the same boat as you and my husband was scared also but I think he is getting better with the idea. I just told him that the medical issues are more risk and that I need to lose the weight. I am in Aurora, IL so not too far from you. Can I ask what you weight and how tall you are. I am 46 and up to 267lbs. I lost down to 212 in 2007 but more medical issues now and I just can't workout like I used to. I'm worried about insurance. I have an *** now but plan to change my insurance in Jan to BCBS PPO. The insurance will cost me more money so I pray I can get it approved. I'm trying to find out what I have to do to get it approved. I also hope that I don't have to take a lot of time off work.
Nice hearing from you. This is my first time on here and I am new.
