Hi everyone, I just stepped out of denial and into the light about my ongoing weight problem recently and decided that there was only one option left-weight loss surgery.

I, like many of you have been on every diet imaginable since I was 17; it is a list of around 10 diets or so, not to mention the seperate times I tried them again and again!

I have a good friend that had LB surgery done last fall. We have the same insurance, and she is a valuable asset in knowing what to do to get the process completed.

My surgeon evaluation is next Tuesday, my BMI is 40.0, and my insurance is BCBS of KC (kansas city). I am 37 years old and ready to roll...

Wish me luck!!

I am new to the site and want to put the weight loss ticker on but am not sure how to do it. I saw yours and set mine up from there but when I was told to copy and paste it, I wasn't sure where to put it. Can you help?

I had the same problem. Go to "ticker stuff" in the intro and follow the link for the tutorial.
