Hello! I’m Suzi. I’m into month 2 of my 6 month diet/nutrition counseling required by my insurance company. I’m excited!! I am looking forward to following everyones journey. I will be praying for you!


Hi Suzi

. Welcome to,Bariatric Pal.I,am,pre surg myself should have RnY early-mid March at Mount Carmel in Columbus Ohio.. I have hit a minor snafu and will know more how my own journey will be going Tuesday or Wednesday. I'm,not gonna say too much more or I'll start crying and won't be able to text right. I am 72, weight 323 down from a high of 355, 5ft8in so that gives me a. BMI of 47. I can't tell you how long I've been obese so,its say for giggles and laughs most of my adult life. I have sleep apnea, have had arthritis both kinds since 25, I am sick and tired of being sick and tired.I am tired of looking like Bip the Michelin Mans sister. This might be my last chsnce at not dying.And I want to,live, I want my last years to be thinner and healthier, diets did not work for me. I've tried most everything up to and including starvation. Tried cutting back to 1 small meal a day. Oh no my body said, I'll just shut her metabolism down. I'll leave her cold, dizzy and feeling weak. And it did. I have been clinging to this hope of a tool,to help me. If this falls thru what do I do??. Keep praying, lighting candles ask a tribal elder or shaman to Do a dance, I'm rallying every force I can think of. Jewish, Buddhist, Christian, Arab, Eskimo, Indian, I'm calling for your help.

God Bless and keep you. I believe he has sent you as a interventional witness to my faltering spirit. Now I'm c lunging to Better is He that is within us than what the c world can offer, And where any 2 are gathered in his name there He will be also. Help me fight the Good Fight please?

Hi annamolly760 you are very welcome here. Do you have a date yet, how far along in the process are you? Ask any questions you want, if I don't have an answer perhaps one of our veterans will. I think we are a group,of very nice folk here.

Thank you! No date yet but hopefully going to set one on Monday. I just made the decision last week to have this done across the boarder after I found out my insurance wouldn't cover and I'd have to pay out of pocket. My cousin had the bypass about a year and a half ago. I'm hoping to meet people who are on the same timeline as me so we can experience this together.
