Robin, Seems you and I are in the same stages. I asked the same questions that you are and was told that it is best to wait for OSU. They have alot of their own Dr's that they use. Best bet is to make sure you have your paper work completed. Your supervised diet info and a referal from your PCP. Are you going to the info meeting this thursday? They will explain their process to you then if you are. Please feel free to email me if you have any more questions. Good Luck in your journey! Lori

Lori hello again thanks for the info . yes i will be at the meeting on thursday hope to see you there .i will be wearing a lime green shirt and black pants with a stripe down the side see ya then and thank you keep in touch we can go thru this together Robin

Will be looking for you tonight! Will be wearing a blue top with a flag on it. Look forward to seeing you there. Lori

Hi Again Robin, I looked for you tonight, but didn't find you. The closest I came to seeing a lime shirt was a teal green one and a dark green sweatshirt type top. Were either of those you? Actually though, I wasn't too impressed with the meeting. It was everything we already knew from researching it ourselves! Maybe I'll catch you at the next one. Hugs Lori
