Hi there! I am from Greeneville and will (hopefully) be having my surgery with Dr. K. Robert Williams (New Life) in Knoxville soon. They were submitting all my paperwork to insurance today so I have my fingers crossed!

I got a message from their office Friday saying I was approved. Then one right afterwards saying to disregard the previous email, as it was an error.

That was a little frustrating. Should know soon though!

Hello I live in Dandridge TN, which is near Knoxville. My surgery date is April 6th with Dr Stephen Boyce, I start my pre op diet tomorrow and my anxiety is growing every day, so I thought I would drop by here and try to make some friends, get some support and maybe even be a support person.

My mother's family is from there. Mcspadden & franklin. I love it up there. :-)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
