How about Lovely Leprechauns? or Lucky Leprechauns?

I'm waiting and it will, hopefully, be in March. BTW, what does DH mean?

It is an informational meeting as a group on gastric bypass and Lapband. You will also go over insurance stuff with an insurance specialist who will tell you your next steps in order to get approved. You will then take a fairly long (I can't remember how many questions, about 250?) psych test. Then you will be weighed and photographed. It is really rather simple, and only the beginning. Good luck, and message me if you have any more questions!

I have only told my husband and mom. I would like to tell the rest of my family because we are all usually pretty open with one another. But I am the only fat one of my siblings and I don't trust that my in-laws wouldn't gossip with everyone (my husband has a couple of family members who had gastric bypass and everyone constantly asks about them!) I'm still waiting for my insurance approval, but I am confident it will come through soon as I spoke with Blue Cross about it and they pre-approved based on doctor's opinion. Frankly, I am scared that this won't work. I have tried so many diets in the past and was unsuccessful or ained the weight, plus some, back. I am so glad I found this forum because reading what everyone else has experienced really helps me become a little optomistic. I know I have a thin, fit person inside of me- she just needs a little help coming out!

I met with my surgeon this week, and am just awaiting approval from the insurance company (from which I have a verbal approval with approval number). I can't wait for a surgery date!!

Hi everyone, I live in Yorba Linda and am very excited about embarking on this journey. I am 35 and a mom of 2 kids. If anyone would like to talk, I would love it! I'm glad I found this site. :frown:

I am a conservative Republican woman in California. Talk about an anomoly! I agree with you about most of what you said, but I think that we should not support illegal immigrants even if they pay into the tax system They are ILLEGAL. But I mostly agree with whatever politician it is, they will do whatever they want without thought to what the constituents want....

Ha-ha! I am still waiting for my Psych eval (Feb 4). I was a Psych major and am very familiar with these tests and Psychologists' interviews. After reading these posts, I am intrigued as to how my PhD will behave in our meeting...
