Ppl suck! When u get thin, take a big group of ppl there, everyone sit down and wait. Then after 5m everyone leave. Tell them word of mouth is the best advertising tool available. Happy ppl tell 2 friends. Unhappy ppl tell 11. Then ask them if they need a calculator.

Green eyed monster of jealously right now!!! That is great news!

I'm so glad u posted this thread! I was thinking the same exact thing. Let's face it, shopping is uber fun and it can be a huge motivator to keep on the right track!

Thanks :-) I'm ready

Dr. Gagne and his staff were great. I was treated with respect and not looked down upon. Glad I started my 6 month PCP supervised diet 2 months ago, to get the ball rolling. They also said its ok for me to have as much as the testing as I can done in Erie, rather than making so many additional trips to Pittsburgh. From what I gather from the insurance requirements, during my 5th month of the diet, provided all the other testing is completed, I will be able to schedule my surgery. Looking like December, and too me, minus having to drive in snow for 2.5 hours, is perfect. My plan was to not tell a soul about the surgery, just my amazing new "portion control" diet that was my new years resolution. LOL

ugggh people suck! Keep ur chin up! Soon enough, you'll be thin and they will still be stupid.

WooHoo! I figured it out too! Sitting here finishing up the packet of paperwork I need to fill out and bring on Wednesday. Kinda kicks ya in the teeth to document years and years of failed attempts to loose the weight. Seems the only time I have ever lost weight was while I was pregnant! LOL Glad we all are starting our journies together!

We all should keep in touch..I have my initial consult on June 27th as well!
