Orientation Was Yesterday Dec 7th 10:30am

So.......

My orientation was yesterday December 7th 2015 and I felt alone. Everyone had there support people except myself. Nevertheless I went with my head high heard the same info I already educated myself on and left. 

I'm so happy how things happened / happening so fast for me.

God is amazing. I already have my sleep study complete from prior to my orientation.

I attended Warton Medical Clinic as well as see my family.

My nurse appointment is in February. Can't wait to be in the ball. In the meanwhile I'm going to get all things prepared for this weightloss journey.

?

I went alone to all my appointments too though my family is supportive. Fact is with this group you are never alone!

All the best on this incredible journey...it's absolutely life changing in the very best way!

Don't feel alone! 

My husband comes to the clinic with me but I end up going into my appointments by myself. I find it easier. I also am always on this forum checking up on others and asking lots of questions. 

You'll find all of the support you need here. Everyone on here is so lovely and willing to answer any questions. 

my orientation is at HRRH on Dec 10 (this Thurs)...I will be by myself as well, but that's ok :)

My husband wanted to come, but seeing I have to leave the house about 6:30 am, he will need to get the kids organized and off to school.

what hospital are you going through?  I have my sleep study this Sunday too :)
