Hi

I'm 52 (53 next week) living and working in the Tacoma area. I had my DS surgery 7/13/10 so I'm 4 weeks out.  Enjoying litle bits of smushy foods.

There are lots of us on here, but most of the time we seem to go to the board that holds the intertest in our surgery.  But don't worry, if you have a question and can't get it answered on a surgical board..someone here will come to the rescue. 

 Hi! The WA board seems to be very slow, I thought it would be fun if we could introduce ourselves and share some of our weight loss experiences. 


I'm a 29F in Seattle. I've been fighting with insurance to pay for my WLS for almost a year now, and was told they won't pay for my surgery until the end of next year. I was recently laid off, and have elected to self-pay while I have this down time. I just want to get my life back, ya know? I will be getting the VSG hopefully next month! I'm excited, yet extremely nervous at the same time.

For fun I like movies, playing with my dog, socializing with friends, spending time with the husband, gardening, reading, wine, playing in the Seattle sunshine (where is it?) and of course FOOD! Why do we have to have so many wonderful restaurants around?

I'm looking forward to hearing from some fellow Washingtonians! Hope you're all having a good summer. 

Im sure buried in the paperwork you signed a page that says you agree to ultimately pay the bill. So, if I were you Id raise the roof someplace before you get sued.

Maybe another loan company?

Very nice!!!

Congratulations
