Looking for people in the Albany,NY area. I will be sleeved October 9th, by Doctor Singh at Albany Medical Center.

Would there be an interest in an additional SECRET group? I'd be happy to start one and honor requests received here.

Me, but if there's no interest that's fine, I'm good with posting here too

Thank you!

Starting in Dr. T's office Tuesday! So if anyone stops in, be sure to say hello!

I hope your first day at Dr. T's went well I was planning on attending the July 12th meeting in East Greenbush, just wanted to be sure it was open to newbies? I'm also requesting to join the facebook group.

Thanks for checking in! Although my first day was a full day of orientation, it went GREAT! Pretty sure I added you tom the FB group. Was that you?

Saturday's group is open to pre-ops as well as post-ops. We all have something to learn and something to offer!

Yes, that was me :-) Thank you :-) I'm looking forward to meeting you :-)

Things are moving forward YAY! Dr said today my pre-op blood work looked good so no more delays and we're on for July 23rd. Feeling excited & nervous.

I'm so happy you made it to the meeting! And I hope more of us can make it to the next one! August 9, 1030 am, East Greenbush Library!

My surgery is tomorrow...

Feeling very nervous and anxious!

How did you do?

Hi there all. I am new to this whole idea. One week ago- was in the back of my mind. I have my first nutrition appointment at AMC on July 29. I was told by my primary that I am a candidate for the surgery. I have been reading so much on line and feel like my head is spinning. Any help/support would be awesome! My husband is great- he has already said that he will support me in whatever decision I make. Right now- I am feeling if I am approved that I would have the sleeve surgery.

Are the support groups at AMC open to people who are not "officially" in the process yet? I would love to attend the E Greenbush ones (I live in Troy)- but work every Saturday.

How did you do?

Home now, doing ok. A little sore but feel pretty good overall. Just hope I can keep up on all the things I need to (water, taking temp, drain measurement, Rx's, walking, protein etc) and taking care of my kids (who are very little!).

Thanks!

Capital Region buddies, I cooked too much puree in advance. I'm selling 2 oz portions. http://albany.craigslist.org/hab/4575973703.html Thanks.

Hey friends! Does anyone know how long jello will keep in the fridge? My surgery is Wednesday so I wanted to make it ahead of time but want to be sure it will keep.

If you put a cover on it, it should keep maybe a week or so, I'd think.
