Hi Kevin, My name is Hally Sue. I live in the upper penninsula of Michigan. i have been working for a couple of years to get WLS surgery done and i believe I have finally found a place to do it but now I have to go all the way to California. All my info has been sent into them and I am awaiting word as to me being accepted into their program. So in the meantime I constantly look at others profiles for info, knowledge and inspiration as I am so very scared of the surgery. Anyway I ran across yours and I have to tell you that I think you are wonderful! You have a wondrerful sense of humor...especially about exercizing..You are so funny! I myself am so looking forward to being able to one day exercize again. So I just wanted you to know that I am VERY encouraged by you and appreciate your openess that you share. I was wondering if you know anyone who has had the FOBI POUCH and if so, what are their results/comments. If you want to you can E-Mail me or anyone else can too for that
[email protected]. Also, do you know of any financial grants to help with traveling/lodging expenses as they say I will have to be in Calif. for atleast 3 wks. My husband is layed off and I havn't worked in yrs. due to weight. So, if you know any way I can find help please let me know. By the way, I am 45yrs. old 510 lbs., 5'6..BMI 83+. I hope you keep up the good work and the GREAT ATTITUDE and just know how VERY ENCOURAGING YOU HAVE BEEN TO ME=). THANK YOU KEVIN....Hally Sue Norton
