Nana, Go for the belly button piercing, and the tattoo. I'm 46 and just got my first tattoo with my granddaughters name on my lower back. I too have thought about getting my belly button pierced but want to wait until I loose the weight. So if it makes you feel good...Go for it!

A whole day process and then some...LOL

I guess I need to check this out...lol

Hi Kathy, It's going well so far, I have been to a seminar and have my consult scheduled for Sept 22nd. At this point I'm trying for the LAP RNY, We'll see this is just the begining, I still have insurance to deal with.

Hey Kim~ We just got back from the seminar learned a lot too. My husband did excatly what they said most people do, now we know about the codes, so he will be calling the insurance company back tomorrow. I also have a appointment on Sept 22 with Dr. Voellinger, Whewww Hooooo. Anyway....I was reading about the fire at your cousins house. My husband and I would like to help out in any way we can, let me know what is needed. Our hearts go out to them all. Donna

At this point I am willing to try any and all sugestions that anyone has. Thanks so much and I will call my husband now.

Well, I have come to my first stop in the road and I'm not sure what to do now, My husband called United Health Care and he was told that they do not cover any WLS. I was so hoping that our Insurance wouldn't be a problem. I'm sorry Just venting!

Thank You for the invite, I would love to join you guys. I will have to see what's going on, and I will let you know. Thanks again

Diane, That's great that you have had no negitivity...I hope that when I decide to let everyone in on it I wont either. Donna

Thank you Kim...lol

Ok this is going to sound stupid...hear goes, I have seen "DH" in several post, can someone please tell me what that is. I'm sorry I feel soooo stupid but I had to ask. Thanks

Jennifer~ Like you I can't tolerate the negativaty, so I wont be telling anyone until the last minute or maybe even after the fact. Most of us know before going into WLS the pros and cons of it all, and we make our decisions based on what is best for us, and we proceed with the choice that we made for ourselfs. Mybe I'm wrong but there may just be a little bit of bitter sweet to the whole thing.

I agree with you, however I find that the men want their women to loose weight but when they do, and they really start to look good men begin to freak out..Love their support...Need their support....want their support, but for me I also have to do it for myself.

Tonya & Kitty I wish you both good luck!

That is what I am going to do...Last night I asked my husband not to tell anyone about what I'm thinking about doing, and even if I am able to do this I don't want to tell anyone..I have decided not to even mention it to my Mom again. Why burst my bubble...LOL
