Hi there,

My doctor is in Parker also. Dr. Matthew Metz. He is awesome. :) How much are you looking to lose? I am sure you will make it in December.

I am wanting to lose 150 lbs. I have always been active, but this year I have actually started to feel my weight is slowing me down. I always promised myself that if I ever felt that my weight was slowing me down that I would do the surgery.

I'm in Colorado Springs. I attend a support group on Ft Carson. Sorry, I don't know of any groups off base.

I am In Castle Rock. My surgery pre-appointment is 11-13-2014. I should find out my surgery date (i'm hoping for the second week in December) I want to lose about 95 lbs and get into a size 34 jeans. I have completed my 6 weeks of classes and tried out the liver shrinking diet. Biggest fear- the surgery not resolving my diabetes, A close second is lactose intolerance. My BMI is 36.

Don't know why it is sideways but here is a list of support groups I was provided with.

Sorry for the delay in response. I am looking to lose 100 lbs. My surgery is scheduled for 11/24. I am getting super nervous. Do you know when your surgery date is yet?

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
