I'm doing ok. I think I underestimated the post op discomfort and how immobile I'd be. I'm not used to being still and having people have to help me do everything, so that's an adjustment. I guess I was just excited and ready for the drastic weight loss part and looked right past the recovery phase lol

My surgeon is Dr. Richards also. So happy to hear from someone who has the same surgeon. Do you go to the support groups? I am glad to hear that your surgery went well.

I went to one (the required "one"). I didn't love it, but I also don't want to assume that they would all be the same. I may try another sometime.this month. Have you been to one?

I went to the required "one" also. I hated it. I was looking for a way to get out. Then I heard that Dr. Walfish has going to be at the next one, so I went. Did you see him? It was a really good meeting. After that one, I was hooked. I've been several other times. You should give it another chance. I feel not so alone after going to one. Maybe I will see you there.
