I wish you much success on everything. I'm in VA and my insurance(Anthem BCBS) requires that I complete their 12mth coaching program and attend a weighloss program. I'm currently doing that. My 12mths will be up in September 2013. I'm hoping that I can also get my surgery scheduled for that time also. So I have 10mths left to go. I look at it as 10mths of planning for success.

Wow I'm not sure that I could do 12mnths plan.. I'm having a hard time waiting till Jan for consult appointment.. but I give you props.

LOL. Thanks. If I could do it sooner I would. Trying to look on the bright side.

We're on the same time frame! My first consultation is the day after yours I have to do a 6 month diet before I can get surgery so by this summer I should be on my way. I'm gonna try to be brave and post pics of my journey. Your video inspired me!

Good luck with your appointment! I have my appointment on January 7th, I am so anxious and ready to get started.

Hi, It's good to see someone else going throught the same process. I got my third appt in morning with the clinic . I hope you get some good news on the 15 of this month.
