So after surgery they have support group meetings? That's cool. Is that through oband?

That's awesome! I wish I would have done the 6 month requirements. I find it still hard to get used to weighing my food and keeping track of my Protein and I'm not losing the weight I should. Not sure why...

Wish I would have chosen the sleeve... I think you will get better results...

And yes we have a monthly meeting at the oband center on Eastern off Tropicana. You have to call each month to find out the exact date for that month and sign up so they know who's coming. I hope to see you there...

Good Luck with your journey

I will. Thank you. I have gallbladder surgery on the 11th so I should be off from work still. I work as a front end manager at Smiths so my schedule is all over the place. Crazy. Lol. I will see you there.

we just all introduce ourselves and then our leader who is a psychologist goes over things that effect us in some way, we bring up issues we are having, concerns, etc. each meeting is different and unique based on who shows up and what concerns are brought up.

So that's on a Wednesday night. I might be working not sure cause I'll have just had surgery for the gallbladder removal.

      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.
