Kaiser Orientation...

[optasia 3]

I went to the orientation at Kaiser for the Options program. I didn't learn anything new, for I've done all my research. However, I have to say that just being there made me feel sick and nervous. The whole thing is just scary and slightly depressing. I haven't been this nervous in a long time. I have no idea what to do. It's amazing that they would rather cut you open than put you in a fully equipped gym with a personal trainer and food plan.

Actually I did learn one new thing....they don't require you to even do the 12 week class. You could simply contact the surgeon and have a consult from there. Don't think I"ll got hat route, but it's an idea.

Thanks for letting me vent.

I wondered myself why kaiser doesn't offer a gym membership and p/t as an option. Would seem cheaper. However I did get the sleeve and went through the kaiser program and am very happy I did. I have lost 47.7 lbs. Um almost 2 months out and feel amazing. I did not go through a 12 week program. Best to you. Lisa

To be fair, this was just the first day (orientation). I'm sure the topics they cover are great. I just feel incredibly nervous and am not sure why.

It's only natural to be nervous. You will come to a sound decision after going through their amazing program. Lisa
