New kid in town (lookin for support)
Hey folks! Been lurking for awhile and now am proud to say I am a member! woohoo! ok so first a little about me
I am 24, 258 pounds. My highest has been over 300 while in HS. Had a bad breakup, lost a TON of weight by restricinting and working out 8 hours a day. Def not a lifestyle that could be maintained. Of course I gained back most of the weight.
Now, after countless attempts at diet programs and thousands spent on programs and pills I have opted for the gastric sleeve. i once believed that surgery was shameful, but now i know that its the bravest and best decision I could make. This isnt some light choice, this is forever.
Im currently waiting for my doc to be approved by Healthnet. I have Healthnet PPO. Does anyone have any experience with them?
Thanks again for all of you being here and posting! its such a great motivation :)
