I feel exactly the same way. My appointment is tomorrow to visit my surgeon and get the okay to schedule my surgery. My life has been obsessed with research and talking to all of you on these helpful forums. Praying for a quick surgery date so I can really start my new life.

My 19 yr old daughter wrote this to me today on Facebook! I know now that I made the right decision!
#momappreciation I just wanted to let everyone know how proud I am of my momma. She has lost so much weight and looks better than ever!! I'm sooooo proud of her! She went from overweight and unhealthy to all around healthy! If you ask me that's a very hard thing to do and I honestly probably couldn't do it myself! She's such an amazing person and I'm so proud to call her my mom! I don't know what I'd do without her! My mom is a one of a kind women and I hope that one day I can be a reflection of you. Even if I'm half the mom you are ill still consider myself blessed! I love you momma

Please ALWAYS consult with your medical team prior to trying anything. I was very lucky to have one of the top Bariatric Surgeons as my surgeon.
Best of luck with your journey! Hope this helps!
God Bless

Just wanted to say hello to anyone reading this. How are you all doing so far? I'm 9 months post-op and down 95 pounds. The last three months have been incredibly slow but I'm still trucking along!

Yes it is Federal Insurance (Blue Cross Blue Shield Federal Employee Plan). I have it but since I just had Bypass surgery in October I have not looked into it. From what I was told, they won't even consider that type of surgery until you are at least 2 years Post Op.

Hi everyone. I haven't been on here for a long time. I thought I'd just update my photos and info and decided to share my photos with you. I had Gastric Bypass Feb. 2nd, 2016. I have lost 94 lbs. so far. I hit my surgeon's original goal weight of 151 on Dec. 28th but I have lost a little muscle mass and now my goal is 143. So I have a little ways to go still. I have had no issues other than getting my gallbladder removed a couple months after my WLS. I have lost over 6 feet of inches. I went from 244 lbs. to 150 today. I've gone from a 2X shirt and 18 pants to a S/M shirt and size 7/8 pants. I went snow skiing for the first time yesterday. I never would have been able to do that before losing this weight. I am so Thankful that I had this surgery. It has changed my life and also how I want to live it! Here's a few pictures for ya.
