SECOND WHAT A SUPPORTING GROUP OF FAMILY AND FRIENDS I HAVE HAD. I LOVE YOU ALL. FINALLY, DR. SABBACK IS MY ANGEL HE GAVE ME MY LIFE BACK SO THAT I CAN NOW DO SOME OF THE THINGS THAT I COULD NOT DO WHEN I WAS CARRYING THOSE EXTRA POUNDS.I'M NOT 100% HEALED WITH ALL THE MEDICAL PROBLEMS I HAVE BUT I CAN FEEL THE DIFFERENCE.HE TRULY HAS GOD GUIDING HIS HANDS AND HIS HEART.THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING THEIR FOR ME AND SHARING IN MY JOY.

congrates on your weight loss....Dr. Sabback is my surgeon as well everything is done just waiting on the insurance approvel (which seems like a life time) even though its only been 11 days lol

That is great to hear. Congrats on the pounds lost. My surgeon is Dr. Sabback also. I'm pre op. I have my ultrasound of my gall bladder, upper GI and blood tests on 2/1. I see the nutrutionist on 2/7/05. Then its' just the pyschiatrist and lung doctor. (I hope) Again gongrats. Wendy

Thanks foryour response Wendy. I wish you all the luck in the world.Dr. Sabback is an amazing doctor and man. He is so helpful to me and answers all question that I may have. Are you getting excited? How much closer are you to completing all that has to be done to get your insurance approval in the bag? Stay in touch. I go back Friday for my yearly checkup and I am 108 feels so good. When doyou go back to see the doc? Let me know hopefully we can run into each other on one of our visits. Take care and may god be with you. A Friend, Deborah
