Checking in

Hi Everyone, I am just checking in to say hello. I am continuing to lose weight on my own and I have 3 more weigh ins with my doctor and one more support group meeting because I put in my paperwork for my surgery. I've lost a total of 14 pounds on my own just by eliminating soda from my diet and my cholesterol has gone down 60 points in two months. I am so excited and wish that I could have my surgery tomorrow but I have to wait to be weighed 3 more times (once a month) or my insurance company won't approve my surgery.  Again, just checkin in.  Welcome to all the newbies on the WLS in your 30's group.
