all day session
How was the "full-day session"?? It is alot of information...and a long day of sitting in a samll room...I put togather a binder and took it with me every appointment I had so that I had all my info with me. AND I found the head doctor questioned me a little on what I remembered from the all day session, so brush up on that before your next appointment.....ie How long w=should you wait to drink water after a meal?? bla bla bla......But she was looking for some life changes when I went for my meeting, so you might as well start now....

as to life changes I am trying but cutting out bread has been a challange that I have not mastered yet
I have cut eating out down to 1 - 2 times a week which for me is really good as I ate out every day of my life as I am not much of a cook or to be honest to busy and lazy to cook is more to the truth
I work alot and am gone from my house at 6 am and don't get home most days till 6 or 7 pm which doesn't leave much time as I go to bed around 9 to be able to get up again at 5 am
I don;t see work changing in the future as that is what I do I quess I need to find a way to become
more organized with food and bring lunches snacks etc
I started bringing protien shakes for when I am at work but alot of my day is in a vechicle no refrigerator
these are just my excuses I know I have to find remedies
I KNOW I WILL TELL MY HUSBAND TO GET ANOTHER JOB SO I CAN QUIT MINE LOL
I would go crazy if I didn't work so I quess that one is out
thanks for listening

I can't wait to hear how your info session went. I had my first consult with Monique and Dr B yesterday and am now waiting for the all-day session, with coordinating everyone's summer schedules, I suspect it'll be August. I love hearing about the experiences of those who have gone ahead of me.
Do they give you handouts or is it strictly your own note-taking?

hi there
the all day session was long and I have to say that I had done alot of research so nothing was unexpected. they go over all three surgeries even if no one is doing them as they want you to be fully aware of your decision then the dietician and psycholigist the physiothearpist was on maternity so we didnt meet her
The best part was at the end when someone came in who had vsg surgery 4 months ago and down 69 lbs we got to ask her any questions we wanted
one statistic i was glad to hear is that dr b has had no deaths related to the vsg all deaths were from the gastric by pass which has only been 4 since he started doing these surgeries
