Hi everyone. I have been looking at this site for a couple of weeks now and have been very encouraged by all of your posts. I am scheduled for my seminar on 12-14-09. I am so anxious to get the ball rolling. I have been on a diet program with my GYN for the last six months so I am hoping that will help with my insurance approval. I have a BMI of 42 and have sleep apnea, hypertension, and spinal arthritis. I just want to be healthy, have energy, and be able to play with my grandson more!:thumbup:

Welcome Mimi...let me start out by saying congratulations on the decision to have LB surgery. Do all the reading that you can on this site and get yourself educated on LB surgery any way you can. It will help you in the long run. Sounds like you have already changed your way of eating. That's a total plus in preparing yourself.

Good luck on your journey to a new/healthier you!

Good luck you have taken the first steps.12/14 is a good day thats my daughters b day

Yay! Good luck on your journey :thumbup: This is really an excellent resource, I'm so glad I found LBT!
