I have not set everything up on this site yet (will need my son's help to customize it and put a picture out there) but I just turned 50 on the 15th and I have complete all but one of my clearances I am trying to get an appointment with the nutritional then I will be able to submit the final package to Peachtree Bariatrics so they can submit to my insurance. I am getting very excited. I really love this site and once I get educated on how everything works I will be more involved. I am so encouraged by everyones testimony this is just GREAT!!!

This site is really lifting my spirits also. God Bless!!! Sherry Jones

  8. :angry_smile::cursing: I am new and just considering lap band or gastric bypass can you give me any words of wisdom, I am 5'4" and weigh 294 I need help and my employer BCBSGA does cover this procedure. I have 4 wonderful grandchildren that i would love to see get married and have children. This is my first step. I am looking for a good dr in Georgia if possible. God Bless :biggrin2: Sherry Jones
  9. Kim I am just considering the lab band since my employer BCBSGa does cover it but I am a little scared. I will be 50 in August and I weight 294 and am only 5'4". It is affecting my health so much. I was told that Peachtree Bariactrics is a good place to go. Any words of wisdom. lab band vs gastric bypass. I am so encouraged about you weight loss. Keep up the GREATwork... God Bless You Sherry Jones
