Hello, I have my Orientation for the Options program through Kaiser on Friday. I have been researching the sleeve for about a year now. What should I expect to happen at my orientation? I was told my first weigh in wouldn't be until my first day of class and now I am reading that the weigh in gets done at orientation and you have to lose the 10% from there. I have no problem with it. I just want to know because my friends are throwing my birthday party early so we can get out of town an celebrate, before I start my strict diet. I hope to start classes Sept. 5th because I couldn't get coverage at work on Thursdays to start the classes in August. I have to do Tuesdays. I am excited, nervous, and all the feelings haha. Help!

When I made my appointment for the Orientation I asked them about the weigh in and they said first day of class. Darn!

@chele367 OMG you look amazing!!! How was your skin after? My classes are in Orange, CA. I am not sure where my surgery would be as I haven't gone to the Orientation yet.

Ah. Thanks for the info. Your surgery is coming up!!!! How exciting! Best of luck!

You are so sweet to reply. This helps! It sounds like your surgeon took a different approach in programs. I don't think I could take Phentermine. I tried something like it on one of my many attempts to lose weight and it made me sooo nauseous. All narcotics make me sick.
