Im new here!!

Hello Everyone..My Name is Heavenly (yes, thats my real name) Im 24, from Upstate NY in the Albany Medical Bariatric Program- with hopes for a Vertical Sleeve. I am excited, nervous, anxious all in one. I have completed about 60% of my programs requirements and am currently working on losing the 5%, I meet with the doctor of Nutrition on the 10th where I hope he will make the referral to meet with a surgeon. I wish everyone the best of luck....I am open to any words of wisdom, thoughts of encouragements and new friends on this weight loss journey. Thank you

Welcome to the group Heavenly. The group of feelings you shared are normal, yes, all wrapped up at once. Keep working the plan set out by your surgical team. We have other members of the group in your area of NY.

Ask any and all questions. We will do our best to share from experience. Join the monday evening chat sessions when you can. The caring and sharing that happens is second to none.

The path is full of hurdles to overcome, take them one at a time, the end result is so worth it. Hang in there. Hugs
