Hello!  I'm Lynn.  I am 34 years olf, 35 in about three weeks.  I've been "a big girl" my whole life and it's never really bothered me.  That changed when I was told that the left side of my heart is enlarged.  My PCP said that is from all the extra weight that I am carrying around.  I've tried diets and walking, and nothing works for me.  My PCP has been recommending baraitric surgery for a couple of years now.  I've ignored that recommendation because insurance wouldn't pay for it.  Now that we have new insurance that will cover the procedure completely, I'm looking into my options.  At this point, I think that the sleeve is what I really want to go with.  My cousin underwent a bypass about three years ago and suggested I come here for some support.

So, here I am!
