Greetings! I am new to this site and find it really helpful. I have been overweight pretty much my whole adult life. I currently weigh 340 pounds. I have tried several diets over the years lost weight and then I would gain it back. I have 5 kids and a husband and I feel like I can barely keep up with them. It's not fair to me or them. I put everything and everyone before myself. I decided I was ready for change. I started this process back in June of 2014 I was going thru a Bariatric program at The Ohio State Wexner Center in Columbus Ohio. I finished the program. Psych Eval, 6 month supervised diet, etc. I made it to the end submitted the paperwork only to be told that the insurance company (united health care) was no longer accepted there United Health Care only allows you to see a select few dr's I was so heartbroken to come all that way and to be turned down. I kept pushing and finally in April was told that Mount Carmel West in Columbus had a Dr. I could go to. So fast forward today. My surgery date is November 4! I am nervous and excited.
