Hi, another newbie, just starting out.

Hi, My name is Michelle. Im 42, 5'7 and weigh around 420....Wow, that was hard to type. but I am getting my life back. I scheduled my first seminar and will be starting my 6 month diet. I did weight watchers last year, and looking into how long I was on the program, not sure if it was 6 months or not. I have been lurking here for a while, and have toyed with this idea for a couple of years, but it was only recently my husband got on board, so now is my time! Im nervous, but determined. I know our insurance covers this, and I have the BMI, plus I am a type 2, have sleep apnea, and high blood pressure, so I was told, I just have to follow their guidelines.

Sorry, this is rambling...lol..Im trying to multitask and failing miserably! :-) anyway just wanted to say hi!

Hi Michelle,

Welcome to VST! I am 5 weeks post-op and I already know this is the best thing I've ever done for myself.

Good Luck!
