Guest guest Posted May 23, 2000 Report Share Posted May 23, 2000 Hi , Welcome! I am also in the midst of collecting everything and trying to get insurance approval. I can't really give you any tips since I am just beginning, too, but there are many wonderful people on this list who will help you. And several are having the surgery in the next week or two, so I'm sure they'll let us all know all about their experiences, too. I am tired of battling this weight problem, also. I am 42 (same age as my BMI, and without this surgery it would probably continue that way - as I get older, I would just get fatter) and I realize that I have been dieting for about 28 years! No more! Good Luck with your journey. Sara BMI 42 (I used to put " I think " here, but it was confirmed yesterday by my doctor's scale) reddena@... wrote: > Hi. My name is Lawton.
