Hey there...thank you so much for checking in. I'm doing okay, but I'm still completely heartbroken. I'm looking into other doctors and alternatives, but nothing is looking too hopeful. Good luck to you!

Hey there! I just wanted to drop in and wish you luck. I hope everything goes really well with your surgery. I haven't been on the board much at all lately, but I hope you'll keep in touch! My email address is heroicdiva@aol.com.

Take care,

Jessica

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! I'll let you know how everything goes!

I'm SO sorry to hear that...it just amazes me when you can have such a special relationship with a guy, and they'd trade all that for a better body.

I should specify, it's my best girlfriend who knows about the band...the guy knows I'm having an operation (I had to explain why I wasn't going to be at work, and why I'm suddenly broke) but I explained that I have cysts on my ovaries (which I do) and let him assume that's what the surgery is for.

I'm just hoping that in the time it takes me to lose some weight and feel better about myself, he'll be figuring out that she's not smart or classy. I know that someday I'll figure out whether or not I'm actually supposed to be with this guy, but I just want to know that I have a fair chance.

I'm always here if you need to talk, too! We definitely have a lot in common and it helps to know I'm not going through any of this alone!

I totally understand not telling people...my mom, grandmother, aunt, and best friend are the only ones who know about the surgery. My father doesn't even know! He would only be mad about me spending the money, and think that I was being lazy and taking the "easy way out." Everyone who does know has been really supportive...they understand that I just want to begin a healthy and happy life, and that I can't do it on my own.

The last few days have been extremely hard for me...I just found out that this guy (my best friend) I've been falling for is dating someone. The thing that's killing me is that I know the girl, and she ISN'T very pretty, REALLY isn't smart, and is SO trashy...but she's got a nice body. It just hurts me that he and I have so much more in common, and have so much more fun together, but she's more attractive to him. I'm obviously doing this surgery for me, and not some guy, but I'm looking forward to the day when I'll have that great body, and the confidence that comes with it, so that I can at least take the chance and tell him how I feel...until then, it's just driving me crazy waiting for this new life to start!

Hey! I am so excited...I can't wait to get started on the road to a better life! How are you doing?

Hey! Still nervous but definitely excited about the surgery...I just can't wait to get started on my journey.

Lynn,

I saw that you posted a response about Pam Miller at True Results in Atlanta, but when I went to the forum the post isn't there. It was Pam who told me everything was covered when I spoke to her last week...when did you find out that things weren't covered?
