This is all new for me...

So I am just starting my process. I have began to get blood work in order, sleep study appointments, and things like that together. I don't want to wait 6 months so if I'm approved though my husband's insurance I plan on doing the 3 month plan. It is going to cost some money upfront but I'm going to see if maybe some friends and family can help. In order to get started I have to pay the psychologist, nutritionist, exercise coordinator. Then I have to pay per visit for the next 3 months. The first month will be the hardest cause school is about to start back and my husband just changed shifts so he is making less hours. I was suppose to be working more but that got put on hold. I'm just praying and I know GOD will work it out. I'm pushing to get this done so we can buy our house the first of the year. I can take off work now before the mortgage comes in. Lol

Thank you so much for your kind words. I have had people tell me bad things already and not even encourage me to do what I think is right. workout they say, or what are you eating. It had been 365 plus days and I'm still in the same place I was in last year. Thinking about weight loss surgery. It must be a reason. My dad told me if I would have already done it last year I would already be reaping the benefits. I never thought of it like that. But i really wanted to try it myeslf. Back were I was but moving forward.
