Gotta Get Down

Thanks for the news... And... one more question.... I want to go alone.. My DH thinks he should go and take care of me, but truly, I'd like to do this myself. What do you think? I think I'll do better alone, I know, I'm weird. I think a lot of it is we have young kids and I want him home w/ them, and I'm keeping this private so I don't want to involve anyone else.

OH MY aching!!!! TOO FUNNY!!!! I can hardly wait to be banded!:heh:

My Sister always told me to say, "yeah, but you're ugly and I can always lose weight, but you're stuck that way"......... I know, juvenile, but still has to make you laugh! :heh:

Please Please Please update on Dr. A. I'm in the 'getting moving to schedule' Stage and he's at the top of my list. Thanks!:clap2:

You are all an inspiration. I'm looking at being banded in Nov self pay:-( Seeing all of your successes and drive is helping me to ensure I'm doing the right thing. Good luck and congratulations on what you have accomplished! Jenn:clap2:

THis is a great thread. I'm gearing up to go to Mexico, but my company also offers BCBS. I may be able to change... I think I'll see if they know yet what policy they are offering and investigate. I did a supervised diet, but couldn't stick to it, WW and diet pills from my doc. It's gone on for more than a year, but no consistently. I wonder if that would work????

Anyone have experience w/ Dr. ALvarez? Does Inamed certified mean anything?

Hi, This is my very first post. I'm likely looking at self pay and it will be MX as that's a major stretch on my budget. I have spoken w/ Dr. Shram's office on the West side of the state for follow-up. Does he have support groups, too?
