Hi Everyone,

You know most of us plan things everyday in our life. That is how we stay organized and manage our lives, homes and famlies. I want you to start thinking about making some BIG plans in your life too. Consider WLS. But, take your time. Ask hundreds of questions. This is going to be a life changing event. You deserve to have the very best you can. Research and read all you can about WLS. I had "sleeve" surgery and I feel it was the very best kind of surgery I could have. It was what I wanted after doing a lot of research.

Never allow anyone to get in the way of your own good judgment. Ask other people about the doctor they went to. Check out that doctor, find out what kind of a hospital he uses--NEVER have surgery in a Clinic. Check out where you will recover and how long they will keep you and what kind of staffing that hospital has. NEVER go to a Recovery House--not safe, and usually not staffed with anyone who has any medical training.

There really is a reason why some doctors charge a lot less. You are NOT getting quality care. When it comes to something that you are going to be living with for the rest of your life--you want the very BEST care and surgery you can have by the very best doctor.

I am always out here if you have any questions or just need to talk.

Hugs,

Suzanne

You give back all the time. Thank you so much for your posts, encouragement and your concern. It does not go unnoticed!

I hope one day after I am sleeved that I can help others as much as your posts have helped me.

Hi,

Gee thanks, I am sure that you will do just that. I found that so many people on this board and other boards were there for me for my hundreds of questions along my weight loss journey. I learned a lot and try to give back that knowledge.

It is easy to give back, I want people to know that this will work for them, they can become healthy and very successfull. Your entire life will change and this was the ONE thing that worked for me to lose the weight and keep it off.

Hugs and thanks for your sweet words. You are so nice.

Suzanne
