I live in the Humble/Atascocita area. Someone had started a group that met in The Woodlands. However, I haven't heard from that group again. I would love to join a local support group. I work so it would have to be early evenings or Saturday.

If you get some more involved count me in. I can come to Willowbrook area. I do so all the time.

I think I need another week. I just had surgery on Tuesday and want to get myself going so I can return to work. The following Saturday will work for me. That would also put me of liquids and on to mushies. Pick a restaurant and let me know.

ok I got an email suggesting maybe not Paneras but honestly I think it is the best place with more band friendly options-not just food-it has the ability to allow us to sit togther indoors or out and not smack dab in the middle of large groups and be able to talk without being nose to nose with non band people-most other restaurants that come to mind dont have that ability but I am completely open to another restaurant in that area if anyone thinks of one that is accomadating

Me too. I am looking forward to putting faces to all the names. I guess for now we look for the "fat" people? Just think, we won't be able to say that soon. :eek:

      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.
