Hi everybody,

First, please forgive me if you have already seen my post in one of the other forums. I posted under three different forums because I am an idiot and did not carefully read the TOS. Now I don't know how to delete any of my posts. Anyway, I promise I will not post anywhere else!

My name is Henriikka W. I am a 35-year old mom from Keller, TX. Like so many others, I have unsuccessfully tried diet and exercise to win my weight battle for several years now. I finally made the difficult decision to seek for a surgery to help me with this fight. I understand that the surgery alone will not resolve the core issue of why I over eat in the first place but it would certainly help me to adapt a whole new way of eating while I would address the emotional side of this complicated condition.

Unfortunately, I recently discovered that our insurance does not cover the weight loss surgery. My husband is a police officer, I am a student and we also have two small children. Therefore, I do not foresee us being able to afford this surgery anytime in the near future. However, I was randomly selected to be one of the nine final contestants in a free weight loss surgery give-away from Dr. David Kim of Colleyville, TX. All of us contestants had to post a video on his web site and now the audience gets to vote one of us to receive this life-changing and life-saving procedure. Would you please take a moment to view my video at www.drdkim.net/contest/ and vote for me if you think that I deserve this opportunity. I would be forever grateful! Henriikka W.

P.S. You can vote once per every 24-hour period per computer. The voting will end on June 1st. Thank you already!

I voted for you too!! Good luck I hope you win!

You guys are so awesome!!! Thank you so very much! I will keep you posted for sure!

I voted for you again today. Please keep us reminded everyday by posting this forum! I am a wife and a mother of two, so I can relate with your weight problem. I am 31 years old with two kids, I never struggled with weight until my son was born 14 years ago! I've been a nurse for 10 years and it's getting harder and harder for me at work! I got blessed with some money so now after years of waiting I am finally scheduled for May 25th! I never thought the day would come. I am so happy to do my 2 week pre-op diet I'm not complaining at all! I know you would feel blessed to. I am praying for this for you!

MandyJ, Sandy1 & Peacequeen-

You are wonderful ladies. Thank you so much! It makes me so humbled and touched that you are willing to go through the trouble and vote for a complete stranger. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

MandyJ, I am sooooo excited for you for being able to finally get the surgery! I am sure you are super excited. I will be thinking of you and saying a little prayer for you on the 25th. What type of surgery are you getting?

MandyJ,

Sometimes I am such an airhead! I can only assume that you are getting a lap band since we, afterall, are on lapbandtalk.com. So silly of me!
