I'm from southern Virginia about 20-30 minutes from Richmond. Here we have support group meetings every 3rd Thursday or 2nd Saturday of the month. I love going to support group it helps keep you focused. You get to socialize with people who are going though the same things you are going through or will have to go though. :-)

Usually the surgeons office gives a list of local ones. Well we have one here on Saturdays once a month but here is about 45 min to 1 hour away. But support group is so important. Send me a message if you are interested. :-)

I'm getting sleeved with doctor Terracina Nov. 5th. I've been going to the support groups in vabch since I lived in Norfolk, but I have went to one in suffolk that I liked. I'm planning on Chesapeake & Newport News next to get a feel of the whole Hampton Roads Bon Secours network.

I'm so glad Dr. T doesn't do a pre-op diet.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
