I'm not from NC but I LOVE Red Robin. The fried shrimp is fab....try it dipped in the ranch dressing. I have the onion straws in place of the fries. I have also had the nachos with chicken added and The chili chili cheese burger is yummy too. Hope you all have fun. ~Mandy

I wish I could be there too. When we moved into the new place, we discovered there is a Red Robin just a few miles away. Before we had to drive almost an hour to get to one. I eat the shrimp and my band is pretty tight. I get a hot tea and that helps to open me up a bit. It's not a regular place, but we eat there a few times a month. Hope you all have a blast~Mandy

I really wish I lived closer to you guys, too! I'm stranded up here in Asheville where the only doctor won't operate on me because I am above his arbitrarily chosen maximum weight ;) Anyway, I will be meeting with Dr. B on Sept. 14. Gosh, I really wish I didn't have to wait so long! The support group here in Asheville is mostly bypass patients and I know people who don't like it very much, plus it meets at 6:00 am! :omg: Um, can we say not just not but h e double hockey sticks no! Anyway, I will probably be making the two hour trek to Concord many times after I get started with this whole thing! I hope to eventually meet you all because you seem like such a great group of people! :clap2:

Hey Kim,

It's too soon for me committ, I should know more about what our lives look like once school starts. Don't for get I have 2 in school, daughter in Kindergarten and DH in 2nd grade, both at different schools.

I will let you know how things are going closer to the date. Sorry I missed the pool party but i'm in pretty chronic and painful back problems, getting through work is my goal right now, so I melt down on the weekends.

I'm sure you can understand. Good thing DH is done with his classes at queens, now we have so much paper work and tests for him to do between now and may.

I hope all is well with you.

Jennifer

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
