Each insurance company has thier own requirements, so if you know what kind of insurance you will be switching to you can contact them and see what they require.  Otherwise I would say just document everything, make sure if you go to the dr. for anything they weigh you.  That way you will have already started your one year  and won't have to start over in July.  Some insurances will accept weight loss plans, weigh****chers,etc. and some require it to be supervised by a doctor.  My insurance requires 3 month physician supervised plan.  I am seeing a nutritionist who works with a physician. Colorado SpringsSurgical Associates, Dr. Fisher's office, gave me her name.  I don't know if this helps any, good luck.

I am just a few days out, and am reading for inspiration while I try and conquer the head hunger and med sleepiness. Reading this has inspired me!

Kathleen,

That is fantastic!  I keep seeing all these big losses and I'm coming up on 4 weeks post op
and don't feel like much of a loser.  It seems to be going slower than I thought it
would.  Any tips would be great & keep up the good work.  :o)
