[kellren 0]

Hi everyone. I got a call just 7 days after submitting my application and I have been approved to start the UTMB surgical weight loss program. I have my first appt in the morning to see a nutritionist and then a nurse practioner appt. I am super excited and nervous all the same. I had to attend a seminar class this past saturday and it was very informative. I learned that I will need to attempt a 5 to 10 percent weight loss pre surgery. I hope I can achieve this requirment. If anyone has any advise for my nervousness I will welcome it. Have a great night all of you

Congratulations on being approved to start! You can do this, but nervousness is all apart of it. This is a life changing process and everyone gets nervous about change. Keep your eye's on the prize, improved health. Research everything you can about LB and this forum is a good place to start.

Good luck on your journey!

The unknown is a guarentee for nerves to kick in. The more you leave both here and in the real world with your medical team, the calmer you will become.
