I'm 31, 330, 5'10'' and am ready for change.

in an emotional over eater, so I'm curious on what is going to happen when i try to maintain.

i have united healthcare and a co-worker had it done a few years ago and said she only had two appointments before setting a surgery date. I've been readying a lot about a 6 months diet waiting period, so we will see.

only issue I'm running into is telling the guy I've been dating for 9 months. I'm concerned he'll judge me. but then again, I'm aware of my crazy insecurities.

anyone else just starting?

Im currently on my 4th month of the 7 month dr supervised diet that my insurance requires. I didn't have a difficult time telling my husband i wanted to have this surgery but i had a hard time convincing him that i had done all i could do on my own. I wish you well on your journey and if he loves you he will understand that you are doing this for your health.

My 1st appointment is on the same day. I'm super EXCITED and ready for this. I most worry about the 6 month diet, hopefully its 3 for me. I hope everything goes well for you. Its almost time to take that first step toward a permanent healthy lifestyle.
