Hello everyone. I’m new to Bariatric Pal. I heard about the site and Facebook group on the Lighter Side of Weight Loss with Jay podcast. I’m so glad I did!

I am 47, married 26 years (in May), have 3 children (29,21,20), and 4 of the sweetest grand children anyone could ask for.

After my husband was found dead at work, revived 5 times and made a miraculous recovery, I knew I needed to get my health under control.

both my husband and I researched for 6 months on types of weightloss surgery, as my primary dr suggested I needed to have it. We decided on the sleeve, and once I had my first appointment with my surgeon, he also agreed it was the right choice for me.

i have 3 more weight management visits for my insurance then I will have surgery. Should be around end of April or early May.

Hello and welcome. Thank goodness your husband is still alive and well for you and family, it obviously wasn't his time!

April/May will be here before you know it!

Welcome - talk about a wakeup call. I'm so glad your husband survived! It's an exciting time for you coming up. It's tough but totally worth it! (This time last year I was 83 pounds heavier. Had bypass surgery in October, best decision ever!)
