I'm New
Hello All,
I am a 32 year old married mother of a 10 year old girl. I have had my ups and downs with weight and am so ready to be healthy again. Thank you for all of your posts that are helping me understand what i may go through. I am having the Rouex-En-Y after my insurance approval comes through. I have my last nutritional counseling appointment on July 7th and then the paperwork will be submitted. If all goes well it looks like a September surgery. I could not be more excited!!! Thank you for all of your posts!!!

Hey there - well, I'm old enough to be your mother - bahahahahaha, but I am so excited for you!
I was 59 when I had my WLS. Why did I wait so long? Because it had never occurred to me to do it sooner. What happened to me at age 59? I had picked up 3 prescriptions - and two of them had a co-pay of $100 each. It was like a slap in the face and I clearly remember thinking "the only reason I'm on these dayumed things is because of my weight and I am going to do something about it TODAY"!
And, well, I did. And here I am 3 years later on no medications except for the supplements.
Stay connected with OH - the support here is wonderful!

Hi,
I am a 38 year old mother of an 8 year old girl. I am in the process of preparing for the sleeve and my surgery is scheduled for September 28th. I am not nervous at all, except for the pysch eval! Though I think I am pretty normal, I can't imagine why it is a 3 hour long session! Sheesh! What can I expect?
