Boy, when I read your post I thought it was me writing. I just started my 6 month journey and wish it was over. I don't understand why they make someone who has been overweight all their lives go through 6 more months of it. If I didn't have to go to work everyday I would probubly just stay in bed. Depression is setting in. I didn,t know if you showed you ate the wrong way that the insurance would deny you the surgery. I'm in trouble because I'm having a hard time this week. Anyway, just wanted to let you know that you are not alone. Hopefully the next 5 months will fly by.
