I am scheduled to go to orientation on 6/23 with the Bariatric Group at Ellis Hospital. Has anyone had experience with this group? Good or bad? I have been contemplating this for several years and finally decided to go for it.

ll my life has been a struggle with weight. Last year was an extremely tough year for me with the lost of my best friend to cancer, due to the depression following that I put on even more weight. I have been through Xenical, dieting, exercise, weight loss challenges at Gold's gym. I went to my PCP who thinks I would be a good candidate for the surgery and he feels that my insurance company would cover it. I am signed up for the orientation meeting on June 23 at Ellis Hospital. Nervous but exited at the same time.
