Thanks....nice to meet you! I am trying to talk my hubby in to me being able to go by myself to the convention. We have three kids so it is a pain as we need someone to watch them. Definately want to keep in touch.
Did you have your revision surgery the same time? I am having two seperate surgeries. Band is already out.

Hi Gang,
My name is Gina and I live in California, but am thinking about flying out for the OH convention. I am trying to meet people who are going to the convention. I will not be staying at the hotel as we own a home in East Meadow so I will just drive there.
I am pre-op(revision) to have the VSG on June 17th.

Hi.  Thanks for the reply.

I am basically trying to get a feel of whats ahead of me.  I was thinking that I probably need to start some consults but I am stil about 40lbs from goal.  I am also trying to figure out how much and under what cir****tance insurance will pay.  I done some prelimiary research and have learned that the would cover a panni and will consider other "reconstructive" surgeries if criteria is met.

Topic: Words to live by
Love can fill many voids; many obstacles to your contentment. It answers the questions of life all the time. If you do not love yourself, then the path towards the pinnacle of your happiness is compromised. It takes no effort to realize that you are important enough to be praised for simply being and doing the things it takes to improve, love and succeed. Begin your day with a “Yes, I matter!"

 Amicable approaches to life make all phases of it much easier. This is especially helpful when you release the negative self chatter that often times is done so quickly that you don’t know you have done it. Keep mindful of this self-sabotaging that can detain you from your goals. Each of you are worthy of receiving love, trust, respect and success. Let it begin from within!
