No. I'm scheduled for about 10 different dr visits over the next few weeks. Where and when do the support groups meet?

I also have a ton of appointments coming up. Tomorrow I have the nutrition group, then a barium swallow this week, another nutrition group next week, pre admission testing in January and last appointment with dr gee. It's a lot!

Where and when do the support groups meet or is that just for post op?

Thanks George! How are you doing? How's the weight loss?

It's going really good. Had my surgery 5 weeks from today..I'm down 33 lbs in 5 weeks..I'll take it..I just started working out again so that is definitely helping..You must be getting excited!

20 minutes no traffic.....1.5 hours with traffic lol
