Hi everyone

I have been reading some of the posts for a while, but this is my first time writing. I just got my date...12/15.... Now I am completely nervous...lol. Excited, anxious, scared, elated, hopeful.....just to name a few. I can't believe I am doing this....I am a mom of 3, my 2 boys are 4 1/2 and almost 3. They are both autistic, I also have a 16 year old step daughter who lives full time with me....I never do anything for myself, this will be the first time I am taking care of me. It's funny, I have been so confident about having this surgery, but now that I officially have a date I am starting to worry... Will I still be me after the surgery? It might sound dumb, but I don't know how to be a healthy person. I am not talking about eating healthy, I mean I don't know how to act, I usually like to be invisible, (most overweight people do) am I going to be that way after the weight comes off? Sorry for the strange post, I think I just needed to share my thoughts.

The powder i get is called ProtiZyme they have a few diff flavors. Do you know which support group you are going to next? are you going to the support group on the 30th or are you going to wait until Jan?

Hey Davis,

I am not going tonight, my kids are sick. I feel bad leaving them with my mom when they are sick. I will be there in January. Are you going? If you see the others send them my regards!

I went to see Maria today I am down 31 lbs! So excited! I am feeling pretty good. I registered for the 6 week class in the surgeons office, they said it is not given in Greenwich. Jan 26 at 1pm.

How are you feeling? 2 weeks already crazy right? I hope to talk to you soon!

Hi Michelle - There was no meeting this week - I think the next one is 1/6. That's awesome 31lbs. The class is 6wks long in the afternoons? Those are too early for me. I went today also I'm down 29lbs and can move on to next stage of nutrition. Keep up the good work.

The class is for us at 6 weeks. It is 1 day only. It is at 1pm on the 26th of January. I will check with Kate about it.

29lbs is awesome! You must feel great????

I also puréed food today, the chicken sausage that Kate recommended .....it was yummy!
