Friday is your day!
Just remember you
are on the journey
of a lifetime. Try
to enjoy every
minute. It may sound
weird now, but know
that you are cared
for and prayed for
here, and all too
soon this will be
but a memory and you
will be an
inspiration to
someone else. I am
waiting for you on
the losers' bench!
My name is Marianne. I am 42 years old. I currently live in Savannah Georgia. My insurance just approved my VSG surgery, that I am hoping to have in early December.
I have not been overweight all my life. I was a skinny minny in high school and college. After college I got married (my wedding dress was a size 10!) started working night shift as a nurse, and moved to different parts of the country with my Army husband. Add this all together, and the weight added on. I gained weight after both my boys were born, finally getting up to a BMI of 54!!!! I weigh about 200 pounds more than I did when I met my husband. I cannont believe that, but it is true.
I am so happy and thankful to have found this web sight. It has been with the support and insight of the people here that I found out about insurance, the procedure itself, and the doctor and hospital. I am very greatful and excited to share my journey.
