I am  new to the forum and am going to the information meeting on July 10. with Dr. White anyone else?

HI Francine! I am a patient of Dr White's and just met with him today and have my surgery scheduled for July18th!! Can't wait!!! He is great! So is his staff!!

Hey Francine,  What's up? It's such a small world isn't it? I won't be at the seminar on July 10 because I'll be heading to bed early that night because my big day is the 11th. Well, I'll be heading to bed but doubt I'll get much sleep. I'll be so nervous. LOL. You'll learn alot at the seminar and there's nothing to worry about. Except for that first weight in. LOL That's not so great.  Good luck to you.

Thanks. I dp feel a little scared about what I think I might be getting myself into - everyone is so nice and upbeat about the whole thing. It just gets me excited and I am beginning to feel alot more sure of this decision I am abput to make!

That is exactly how I felt in the beginning! I have researched with every waking moment and you just don't see very many people who wish they wouldn't have done the WLS. Everyone is VERY positive and supportive!! It is so nice to have a circle of friends who truly understand what you are going through!! Did you say you have already went to the seminar? Have you been to a support group?? I will be attending the July 11th group and it will be nice to put faces with some of these names. You become to really know people on this website and share your feelings good and bad!   Keep us posted on your journey! Malissa

I had my surgery with Dr. White on Dec 6th. He is very quiet and soft spoken, but very intelligent and caring. I think you will really like him. Best of luck to you...it was not that long ago that I was standing where you are now. :)

I just scheduled my appt. too! I'll see you there!

cool!! Glad to hear it.
