Sorry it has taken me so long to summarize the last meeting. I was out of town again. I have attached PDF's of my Dr's nutrition info. Lots of info. We discovered that some Dr.s don't provide detailed info. Please use as a guide and follow your Dr's instructions.


We also talked about goals and how they should be SMART, see attached pic. If I say I want to run a 5k in 4 weeks and I've never run before, that wouldn't be a SMART goal, not realistic. We can expand on this more later. We also talked about being on track. For example if your goal is to drop weight and you are consistently, then what you are doing is "working", if not then you need to change what you are doing.

I had my first "overeat" meal on my vacation. I had my first hamburger and it was delicious. Well I ate way too much and had to run to the bathroom to toss my Cookies, the rest of the night I felt gross. I learned my lesson. I also ate a bunch of crap I shouldn't be eating. Vacation over, time to clean it all up.


Next meeting August 19 6:30 pm at patio outside Corner Bakery in Lake Forest off El Toro Road in Orchard center. I may not be there but I will give some info. Hopefully after the summer is over we can meet on a more regular basis, like twice a month.

      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.
