Hi! I am new to this and not sure how it works. I have had weight issues forever. I have tried all the diets. I am ready for the GB. I have done all of my nutritionist, psych consult etc. I meet with the surgeon on July 9th to find out what is expected of me before I am scheduled for surgery. I guess I am lucky because I don't have any of the insurance issues that I have read about from a lot of other people. I work for Kaiser Permanente and employees have great benefits. I am very blessed. I am nervous about meeting with the surgeon though. I mean it seems crazy that I am expected to lose before my surgery. I understand the concept of trying but I have lost a lot of times before that isn't the issue. It is keeping it off.
