G, Have the Greatest Ever on the 19th!! It’s good to see more guys out here on Obesity Help. We make up a small minority of the people having Weight Loss Surgery, but tend to lose down quicker and with fewer hassles than the women due to Male Physiology. Drop by the "Men's Message Board" at- http://www.obesityhe lp.com/forums/men/ -to see how other Guys are doing with their surgeries. A lot of info and advice specifically tailored to Men. I’m just dropping by to let you know that there’s a huge crowd of strangers out here pulling for you and holding you in our prayers. May you have a famously successful surgery and a record-breaking recovery! Be nice to the nurses, Enjoy the drugs when you can, and most importantly, hurry home and start walking away from those pounds and into a new Life! Best Wishes-

Wow, its been a min since i've been on here...but anywho. So i was at lunch in school and I get a phone call. I didn't know the number at first because i didn't say it in my phone. so i answered and it was michelle from the dr. boe's office telling me that the insurance approved the surgery. i was/still happy about it. i didn't know what to do. so now i just need to get my phsyc done and everything would be straight. now the only problem with that is, i don't know where to go and i don't know how much it would cost..insurance isn't paying for that. so if anyone could recommend someone in the philadelphia area that would be great.. but i gotta go do some homework now, ill keep ya'll posted.
