You look great! Can't wait to be on your side of skinny - you've done an amazing job and it's nice to hear someone who's positive about life after surgery. Thank you for your words of encouragement!

Georgia, I live in PHX also and when I came upon this website a year ago, I looked for peers under AZ., and your name was the first name that I went to and began to read your profile. I was convinced then, that this is what I wanted to do. So I am sending you this message that I hope your knee surgery is successful and I will keep you in my prayers. Thank You so much/Irene

Hi, I just wanted to give you my two cents worth on what you said about occasionally feeling ashamed about having this surgery to control your weight. I admit that I felt the same way also to begin with. I am still waiting to have my surgery and have spent MANY MANY hours on this web site reading what everyone else has gone through or is going through. And the conclusion that I have come to is that you have to be a VERY brave and VERY STRONG person to be able to do this!!! From what I have read and seen for myself, it is very hard to go through. Not an easy way out! I commend you for being brave enough to do this and succeed as well as you have! You should not ever be ashamed!!! It is a way of improving your life! Do you see anyone who has had a boob job(life improvement)being ashamed?? :) I also have UHC PPO and am waiting on approval. Any info on that would be wonderful!
