wow! that is fast!! Does it always happen so fast if you are self paying?

Thanks so much everybody-another question-how do I go about finding a good doctor near me?

When you talk about 'one more trip to the buffet won't hurt' I know exactly what you are saying. Sometimes I will be so disiplined and then I think...what difference is one egg mcmuffin really going to make in the long run? But then it keeps building up. Good luck. I just joined this forum last night and I am going to read and read to learn as much as I can.

Hi Everbody! I am really interested in this surgery. I have so many questions I just don't even know how to start. First of all-I do not have insurance...I live near Knoxville, TN...do you know of any great doctors there for this? Also-did I read I could be financed for this? I am a single mother to two kids so I wonder about recovery time? I do have lots of help though during the healing time. How long does it take to get started on this and actually have the surgery? and then how long until you are allowed to lift things? sorry so many questions...I see a glimmer of hope and I am so excited to check back tomorow for your responses. Thank you so much ahead of time! :thumbdown:
