Guest guest Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 I just got caught up on your posts and think I have another perspective about the cost of WLS. My surgery is scheduled for Feb. 16 and I can't wait. In the past I have done to Craig, Weight Watchers, Herbal Life and all kinds of other programs. I also have taken Phen Fin (Which was awesome but not something I could take for life) and have gained back every pound I ever lost plus more. If I took all that money that I paid for all of the above I would have enough to pay for both my surgery and yours and I am only 37! That is about 17 years of dieting. I have many more years than that before my life is over. My husband refinanced his precious classic corvette for the money for my surgery and it is going to be worth every $288.00 payment I make for the next 3 years. After that I am home free other than occasional adjustments. What is a lifetime of weight control worth to you? Good luck in your research but also weigh out the costs of a lifetime of unsuccessful yoyo dieting both to your health and to your pocketbook. Tammy 250lbs now but soon to be 150!
