I am in the beginning stages of the process, but I feel alone I don't know anyone who has gone through it or is going through it...anyone out there that is in the same stages that would like a friend along the way

Hey Jen - I am farther along than you - getting ready to have RNY on Aug 5th. But I am new to everything as well and would be happy to help you in any way I can! Where are you at in the process?

I went to the seminar last wk and met with the surgeon yesterday... I have next nut appt and my psychiatrist appt on the 19th

Hi Jen I have my first appointment tomorrow so you and I are in the same boat. I'll be your buddy.

I just had my seminar last week too so I'm very new at this I'll be your friend. ????????

I am just starting the process of weight loss surgery. I have attended a seminar and I have my referral letter. Now I just have to get an appointment to have a bod pod done. A bod pod is something they do here to measure the body fat. After that is done, I can meet with the surgeon. I'm not alone in this. My bf is not only supporting me through it, he is going to go through it with me. I am however very nervous about the idea of surgery and making such a big change, but it is a change that I want and need.
