Hi again- Yes I am from Mass actually- is that the only place people are quoted to do "I can change"? I'm looking forward to getting the first phone call and starting! I'm a teacher so the 6 month wait isn't so bad- I'm hoping to schedule surgery to coincide with me feb vacation. I recovered great from 2 c sections so I'm hoping my recovery from this is just as good!

Thanks for your responses! I just faxed in the form for I Can Change today. Do you mind me asking in your experience- how long did it take for them to call you after you faxed in your form?

Hi All- This is my first post and I'm just starting the journey. I'm very excite an also nervous! Due to my insurance I need to do the 6 month "I can change program" and I was just wondering if anyone had experience with it? I go for my initial surgery consult this Friday. Lastly- I was wondering how people deal with family? My husband is supportive, but he is nervous and doesn't want me to have surgery(I'm 32 and we have 2 toddlers). I know he loves me but I think he's afraid of me taking this small risk of surgery. My parents will not be very supportive so I don't plan on telling them until I am about 3 weeks pre op. I know at that point they will be supportive. I have about 100lbs to lose and can't wait to just do it! Sorry if this is a rambling first post- I just didn't know where to start and I'm hoping this board will be a good resource!
