Hello everyone

[Guest guest]

Hello, my name is I am from Texas, I had my surgery November

28, 2005. I was a 50.7 BMI weighing 406 @ 6'3 " tall. as of today

February 24, 2006, I am down 84 lbs. I feel there are days where I eat

everything in site and others where I cannot force myself to eat. I

was told that people " do not get hungry " until after 4-6 months, I

found out this is a myth (at least it is with me) I have had only 2

really bad days since I have had my surgery and one of them was due to

other illness. I still have problem with certain foods IE: Chicken:

The item that I was told would be my best friend, well with friends

like that I will just keep enemys...lol I am off today for my 90 day

checkup, I have to drive 120 miles to the office and 120 miles back,

but today I am especially excited because My wife is going with me, I

think I might have actually convinced her to have it done, I guess

when she is on the table then I know my convincing has worked. All of

my hospital bills and other supporting bills have finally gotten paid

by my insurance, all total over $52,000 was billed, they paid right at

$25,000 and that was just for 1 night in the hospital. That is what is

wrong with insurance, they will take a 27,000 right off because the

insurance company say so, but if you were paying cash they would sure

not give u over 50% off.

Well I look forward to being a member of this group, and I will be

writing again soon,
