Support Group Night

Feb 21, 2013

Went to the Support Group at Lennox Hill.  We had a large group there tonight, over 40 people.  Hearing how many people had significant weight loss was inspiring!  The guest, so to speak, was a gastric bypass patient who is 12 1/2 years out.  That was impressive!  She has tried many things over the years, but the thing that works for her is when she went all vegan - raw.  A hard way to go, but it is working for her.  Tried some of her samples of whnat she makes - pretty tasty - little scared about the amount of prep needed.

Well, I found out that my surgeon officially went out of network effective Feb. 1st.  If I had known that, i would have pushed for surgery sooner - that mistake could cost me as much as $10,000.  I'm going to see if the surgery place will make arrangements to help me out, but I can see this will be one more battle I will have to take on!
