Hi All,

I have just started my journey towards WLS with Dr. Gersin in Charlotte, NC.  I live just over the boarder in SC, but since my doctor is in NC and the SC group doesn't seem very active I thought I would venture over here; hope that is ok.

I am on my 2nd month od the dr supervised diet with Dr. Cleek (required by my insurance).  I have lost 8lbs but know I could have done better. I just got the thumbs up from my neurologist and still need to get a hematologist to ok surgery before Dr. Gersin is willing to do it.  Otherwise it is the typical insurance hoops I need to get past.  I am hoping to have surgery by the end of the year, but it would take evrything falling just right and not taking a long time to get back the ok once we submit paperwork, so it will probably be early 2012 before I have surgery if I look at it realisticly.

I look forward to meeting others who have been in my shoes and are already well into their journey.

Thanks,
Kim

Yay for channel 11 coming to see you, maybe they will let you borrow a tv so you can watch- I know they will give you a tape of the segment if you ask. Channel 11 as in ABC right? If so see if they will tell you when it is going to air and I will watch it. Not much of a tv watcher these days but sometimes I do.

The rain was wickedly AWESOME. I fell asleep during the middle of it I guess. It was still raining when I woke up later that evening but the lightning and thunder has passed.

Not much planned for the day other than cleaning up my house. Got to clean out the fridge- hmmmmm i do not think there are any unlabled science experiments in there. LOL!!!!!!

Loved the rain last night!  Good luck with Channel 11 today!
Going to see the personal trainer in about an hour.  Have a lot of running errands to do after that.  Hope you all have a great day!

It poured down rain so hard I had to pull over in a parking lot. I couldn't see. I'm going to a health food store today to see if they can help me find some kind of protein bar with no sugar and tons of protein. One that is not like candy. I hate even fake candy. I don't like anything to do with candy. I could throw up thinking bout it. Now tater chips is my thing. lol......Going to my sisters. Going to take my son his lunch and to the drug store and grocery store and then back home. Woooo that just made me tired to think bout all that. Have a blessed day all.

Hi all,

Wasn't that an awesome storm yesterday?  Much needed rain!  Today Channel 11 comes out so I need to get some things done this morning.  I don't know when it will air and I don't have a TV so let me know how it looks if you see it.  Hubby is off today so will spend time with him.

You?
