New to the group

[Guest guest]

Hi Losers!

My name is Mindy and I'm definitely going to be getting some type of WLS but

I'm not sure what or when yet. I'm attending an informational seminar from the

hospital I'll be using - it's in Cleveland, which is a 3 1/2 hr drive from my

small down in NW Ohio. The seminar is on May 13th. After that I'll make the

deicion about if I want gastric-bypass or lapband. I was hoping you folks in

the group could help me decide too.

The thing is, right now I'm unemployed, hoping to get disability (have already

gone through the hearing process and should find out in 2-3 months), and on

Medicaid. I am 5'6 " and weigh 302 as of my last vist to the doc last week.

I've been on & off diets (mainly on) since I was in the 3rd grade and I'm 37

now. The biggest problem is that I have a HUGE appetite. Another problem is

that I'm bi-polar and so I battle depression - especially in the winter.

I appreciate any helpful hints you guys can give me as I start this journy.

I'll be posting the profile info file later tonight.

Thanks!

Mindy
