Hello to all I am new to the support forum and I would like to take this time to thank all who took the time to give valuable information.
I am in the pre-surgery category. I have my 2nd to last class today with the nutritionist looking forward to it with hopes of getting a surgery date. My only concern this far is that my weight is 295 lbs and most of that being muscle mass as well as excessive fat. I worry that the surgery won't be as beneficial due to muscle mass. If anyone should have any answers or advice or may have shared the same concerns any and all replies would be much appreciated.
 
Wonderful encouragement, Diane, thank you! I‘m new here and just received a call from Humana this morning that I’ve been approved for gastric bypass after 4 months of jumping through the hoops. Nervous, but soooo excited and filled with gratitude! AND, So happy to have found this community!
