Any Tennessee Sleevers Out There?

I'm scheduled for surgery 8/27 in Memphis....looking for other Tennesseans to share the journey with. I'm both excited and scared.

I was sleeved in Greeneville.

Anyone here????.. Threads alittle dead?!?. wish there was a support group in motown!

Oh really awesome. Im getting sleeved in maryville. When were you sleeved and whats your progress?. I am always motivated by other peoples success!!

I was sleeved in April and have lost 85 pounds. I have a friend that was sleeved in April and she has lost 120 pounds. Drives me crazy that I am considered a slow loser, but the scales are moving down. You won't regret this decision.

I wish there was a support group in Mirristown, too! Support groups are such a big part of the process. Can't imagine not having one.

Maybe someone of us can form our own group!!. congrats on your success. I hope im successful, im confident I will but when your still preop its kinda hard to imagine it could be you!!!

Does anyone go to support groups in Murfreesboro? I was sleeved 12/16 in Alabama and will be returning home to Murfreesboro around the 12th. I'd like to have a support group chose to where I live. I know there are a couple of bariatric surgeons in Murfreesboro so I'm hoping they have support groups as well. Thanks!

Vanderbilt's support groups are open to all. Meetings held at 100 Oaks.

Maybe we should start one. We should try to find more people from Morristown and start one.

Is there more than one hospital in Murfreesboro? Like I said I'm new to the area and since my surgery was in Alabama I don't know what's available in Tennessee. Oh, and where is the hospital that has the support groups? Thanks!

There's one hospital. It's on medical center parkway. There's the Dupaul building next to it and another one over there. You can can DR eckles office for the schedule and the website. I think it's Murfreesboro bariatric surgeons.

Hi, My name is Amanda. I was sleeved on December 17, 2013 at Centennial Medical Center.

I am from Hendersonville, TN.

Would love to chat!
