Hi Cactusflower...

I think there are at least 3 or 4 of us that are interested in doing this. I just had a similar note yesterday from a Henderson person, but she will be on vacation until July 2nd.

I think the District at Green Valley is a good place. There are several outdoor sitting areas. Especially in the moring when it is cool.

I am just getting back to feeling normal after my banding on the 5th. I would be glad to work with you to set up a first meeting. Maybe more would come if we posted it here.

What do you think?

I think that would be fabulous. I know of a couple of Henderson people (mominlv13 and yvonne72) that would probably be interested. The District sounds good. If mornings, I think a Saturday morning would be best because of most people's work schedules.

Ok! Maybe the best way to make this happen is to send an email to each person individually - in case they aren't looking at the board right now. What do you think? We could go for next Saturday.

I am still up for seeing who I can get this weekend, too!

I'd love to! I posted to VegasGrace on the other thread about this weekend and said I was game.

When and where? I am up very early, so nothing is out of the question. I'll be there with bells on!

Anyone who wants to join, let's do it!:frown:

I just spoke to Fran (mominlv13) and she and I are very interested in meeting with everyone. Unfortunately, Sunday morning is definitely out because she works on Sunday and I go to church. Sunday afternoons would be fine for both of us.

      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
