Hey,

I'm a Chicagoan looking for someone to go through this process. I'm post Op (2 days) and haven't received a ton of research or support from anywhere. I'm all about the success of this endeavor, if you are about successful weight loss and education just let me know!

Hey there! I am from Alsip on the South Side, but have not had my sleeve yet. I am three weeks into a 12 week preparation program. Coming up is the Psychologist appointment - never been to one. How was it? My surgery will be at Loyola's Gottlieb Hospital. I guess Advocate in Oak Lawn does not do it, or my primary would have sent me there. I am retired from Federal Service at the Jesse Brown Veteran's Hospital.

Hi and Good Luck on this journey! The psychologist appointment is interesting. The main point is they're trying to make sure that you are mentally certain and stable for such a change in your life. Most of my support and health services are out west, but I do live south. Keep me involved with how everything is turning out!
