Thank you for caring enough to write about the issues without the trademarked evidenced based studies which are as your said hard to conduct when it comes to emotionally based issues. Any of us who are obese have those issues just by the nature of being obese and how the world views us. Cant "weight" for the next article!

Most of the blogs I have read on Bariatric Pal start with a surgery date or actual surgery itself, I am starting now. My first appointment is April 14th to see the weight loss clinic and get my process started. For me it started the day I said to myself now it the time to do this and the day I had the courage to ask my family to support me in doing so. I still am in awe that my children all thought it was an amazing idea, I knew my husband would he has been through 35 years of my obesity, never complaining alway encouraging. We have had to all work and sacrifice to save as I am a private pay, they are an amazing group of young people. I should have enough money to schedule surgery in late May or early June. I will try to share as openly as I can with you all, in the hopes it will help my success and perhaps someone else who is looking for support and friendship.................. until tomorrow.... drink water and sleep well
