Just a short note to ask you all to save the dates of Aug 20-21 for the ObesityHelp Cincinnati Weight Loss Conference!  Watch the events page and state boards for formal announcements and details...Mary Jo, Dr. Davis, Dr. Stapleton, Chef Dave and more!

We look forward to meeting you and seeing our old friends!

Sincerely,
Kim

Yeah, what Robin said.  My insurance covered my panniculectomy (I ahve enver heard of  insurance covering a full body lift, BTW... many will cover a panniculectomy if you meet the medical necessity criteria,and SOME will cover a TT, but that's about it) but I had a TERRIBLE time finding someone who would do it Dayton/Cincy using the insurance.  I found a surgeon who had just returned to private practice  to do my panni, but now even he will not accept insurance for it.

thank you for your advice.  I do go to the doctor tomorrow and the rest of my people at the CCF.  I am scheduled to return to work on Monday  so I hope things start to get better.  I sometimes wish i did not have this done.  I also love being in the gardern.  I hope this spring I will be able to move around my garden and flowers with much more ease.

Try going on a liquid protein fast for a couple days to get the carbs out of your system. Just drink all the shakes it takes to keep you full. It helps me, sometimes if I really need to eat something I will have greek yogurt but stay away from everything else

I'm sorry.. I already sold it. Someone bought it a couple hours after I made the post and I havent been able to figure out how to delete this thread!! Maybe someone would be willing to sell some at the support group meeting like Tonya suggested??
