Hi fellow Ga. Peaches!

I live in Fayetteville and am going to be sleeved by Dr. William Johnson at Emory Johns Creek. I attend a support group in Peachtree City. If anyone lives on the south side and would like to come we would love to have you! Just let me know and I will send details.

I just got approved today so I don't have my date yet, but I'm hoping for June. I hope we get a lot of Atlanta area members!

Hi Jackie! I was so happy to find someone so close to home. I'm Wendy and live in Jackson. I lived in Fayettevile prior to moving here. I'm scheduled on May 26th and am going to Mexico to have mine done. No insurance coverage for the procedure. I was wondering what type of group meetings they may have around here. i know Suothern Regional does one but wasn't sure if you could go to one if you were a patient of that particular physician. I wish you great success in your journey and look forward to hearing from you.

Wendy

I also had surgery by doctor Williams at johns creek just 3 months ago. Very good doctor but not much of a talker but he is good. The hospital is very nice as well with amazing staff. Good luck

      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.
