I run a secret group for autism professionals. Invitations must be sent to the facebook-email. I would only join if it was secret.

Would there be an interest in an additional SECRET group? I'd be happy to start one and honor requests received here.

Me, but if there's no interest that's fine, I'm good with posting here too :)

Thank you!

I hope your first day at Dr. T's went well :) I was planning on attending the July 12th meeting in East Greenbush, just wanted to be sure it was open to newbies? I'm also requesting to join the Facebook group. :)

Hi there all. I am new to this whole idea. One week ago- was in the back of my mind. I have my first nutrition appointment at AMC on July 29. I was told by my primary that I am a candidate for the surgery. I have been reading so much on line and feel like my head is spinning. Any help/support would be awesome! My husband is great- he has already said that he will support me in whatever decision I make. Right now- I am feeling if I am approved that I would have the sleeve surgery.

Are the support groups at AMC open to people who are not "officially" in the process yet? I would love to attend the E Greenbush ones (I live in Troy)- but work every Saturday.

How did you do?

Home now, doing ok. A little sore but feel pretty good overall. Just hope I can keep up on all the things I need to (water, taking temp, drain measurement, Rx's, walking, Protein etc) and taking care of my kids (who are very little!).

Thanks!

Capital Region buddies, I cooked too much puree in advance. I'm selling 2 oz portions. http://albany.craigslist.org/hab/4575973703.html Thanks.

Hey friends! Does anyone know how long Jello will keep in the fridge? My surgery is Wednesday so I wanted to make it ahead of time but want to be sure it will keep.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

        LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
