Topic: RE: Got my surgery date Feb 3rd
I just took a week off of work (desk job) and I was ok. I was a little tired, and that first week back was a blur, but it worked out ok. I just made sure I didn't have to "eat" in front of anyone. Even now when I heat up my lunch in the microwave, if I get a comment "is that all you eating?" I say -- well -- I'm dieting big time, and this is just a part of my lunch (the other part is a protein drink that I sip throughout the day!
Congrats on your date!

Topic: Got my surgery date Feb 3rd
Hi everyone. I got a surgery date w/ Dr. Fowler set for Feb 3. I just can't even believe it. I really have to get my **** in order.
I haven't even told my job that I am having surgery. I have to let them know something this week. I really didn't want to tell them I was having gastric bypass as I don't think it's any of their business. So, I got to come up w/ something. I was thinking of just saying it was personal and I needed a week to recover. I sit at a desk at work so I'm hoping that a week is all I need. I'll just take my own vacation time.
I've been over weight for so long that I really haven't ever dreamed of myself as being a thin person because nothing has ever worked for me. I'm kinda afraid of really believing this is gonna work. Does that make sense to anyone?
I just pray that this is the end of a long FAT person journey for me and a new start.

Topic: RE: Dr. Steven Fowler
Welcome!
I went to his seminar and enjoyed it very much. I found him very personable. In the end, I did not go with him for other reasons.
You'll find quite a bit of people on here that have gone to him. I'm sure they'll respond soon.
Best of Luck on your journey!!
