I am currently doing lots of research and checking reviews on all centers of excellents in the area, Dr. Reviews, who has what pre-op requirements and levels of post op support. I see a few seminars in my future. ")

Seattle gal here. My sleeve surgery is 12/23 with Dr. Elias Ortiz in TJ. I do not qualify for insurance - not sick enough! I would love to connect with other locals over coffee or Water (I hear drinking water is muy important!). I am looking forward to the surgery, not too nervous. Talk soon, Anna

Hi All! I had my sleeve surgery in June of this year (2013) in Spokane w Dr. Bright. I now live in Western Washington on the Kitsap Peninsula. Anyone know of support groups in western Wash? I'm only 6 mos in and haven't been to a support group since August because I live West now. I really could use a support group or counselor in the area...as I am struggling w my eating. I've actually considered joining weight watchers for the support part. I've found that I can eat way more than I thought I could...so any suggestions for support groups would be great. Thanks!

      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.
