I feel ya to, My husband is also not supportive, although he thinks he is because he went with me to see the surgeon. He asked the Dr. if he ever had anyone die on the table, that was it. I am tentatively scheduled for 12/19 awaiting approval. All my tests have been done and I know I qualify. I just hope my insurance doesn't decide to be asses about it and require more than what their policy says they do. Anyway, you have to do what is best for you, especially if it's to improve your overall health. They'll either deal with it, or they won't. Life goes on! Best of luck to you and hope you have a smooth recovery.

Good luck! Hope to hear about your victories soon.

Hi nancer, I am also beginning my journey. I have fini. shed all my tests and will hopefully have surgery on 12/19/12, which can't come soon enough for me. You will find a great support system here. Feel free to ask questions, and although everyone is different I'm sure you can find answers to all of them. Good luck on your journey and I wish you a speedy recovery.

Great job..you look fabulous

I to am just starting my journey. I have finished all my pre-op testing and now am just waiting for my surgery on 12/19/12. I've told several girls I work with and they are all very supportive and understand why I'm doing it; my husband, however, is a different story. He loves me the way I am, and is afraid of the "dying on the table" risk, but he also understands why I'm doing it. After all, if he loves me that much he should want me around longer right? lol Just remember you are doing this for YOU, not anyone else. Keep your eye on the prize and you'll get there for sure. Anyway, good luck on your journey and can't wait to hear about your victories..
