Our first one will be June 5th. They will be the first monday's of each month @ 6:30. I would love to have some if not all of you there with me for the first one well for all of them...but I will take the first one. :) We have some good plans, guest speakers, Dr. V will be there sometimes, Q & A. It will be myself and Bobbie (one of our RN's) there to lead. I have taken some classes and I am learning so much. This will in NO way take away our monthly meeting...I love meeting you guys. I just think it will be helpful...keeping us on track. It's @ the Cornwell Center on Selwyn Ave accross from Queens college.

Hope you can make it, I will of course remind everyone again. I just wanted to put the bug in your ear now.

I'll try is the best I can offer right now. Things are unpredictable at work, and overtime is on the horizon.

Karen I totally understand...if you can try then that is all we can ask for. At least you will know where to find us when you need us. :eek:

Dianne I hope to see you there!!!! I am hoping we will get a few people there and see it grow. Bobbi is great...I know everyone will enjoy her.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
