you will really love the orientation.....its like it is finally beginning!!!  Sit in the front row and take in as much as you can!  Do you have a support person going with you?  Its always good to have that extra set of ears to maybe catch things you may miss.  GOOD LUCK!

Thanks for the advice will definitely be sitting in the front.. I am going alone hubby has to work and I haven't really told anyone.. The one person I thought would be supportive because she talk to me about wls in the pass is not supportive at all.. When I told her she said don't have the surgery, all because her friend who had wls had complications down the road.. I Decided not to tell anyone else at this point don't want the negativity..  Instead I am looking for support group to get involved with being around positive supportive people who knows what I am going through!

I can relate.  You end up feeling very alone at times.  I did at first but then realized that one of the reasons why I became so unhealthy and ill was because i was not putting myself first for anything.  Everyone else's needs, wants and opinions were first.  The process of waiting has made me more convinced that this is "for me".  its actually not even for my husband or my kids because it has to start with me.  I need to succeed for it to benefit for them.  that hasn't happened yet.  so i congratulate you for seeing yourself to the end first.  Take care
