  3. Amy have you lost weight ???;) sorry about your gallbladder:confused:

    Wish all the people that need to appeal don't give up it's a battle but at the long run you will be a hero;)


  4. I am so sorry for your denial..have your had your primary Dr or your psych Dr write a letter??

    I was at the dr's office the weight was 261 with shoes got home and I was 257 without shoes like this better:p it's a new digital scale my daughter bought for me for my journey..:nervous

    I am so excited I cannot believe it..I am glad I live in Massaschusetts it sounds like we have more support then other cities like NY some strange stories I have read on another site..

    We really get alot of support from each other on the sites then we kind of do in person at times...last support group I want to there was a man that was really being a jerk and too bad she didn't throw him out..

    But besides all this experience is positive for me I wish to be around for while:girl_hug:

    I will keep in touch with this group on my awaited journey..:)
