Orintation went well

Best of all I loved my class and the instructor recommended everyone come and check out OH. To sign up and talk with some people so we might get a new wave of posters soon Cali Board members. Get your welcome hats just in case they do come over.

Everything I read here was right on and was not shocked by anything at all. It seems I will have my surgery in San Diego at Scripps Mercy.... But until then I have 9 classes more to attend every other wee****il Dec then its every week...

I cant wait.

Thats awesome!  Congratulations!  you are on your way for sure!!!!  Whoo hoo!!!

You are officially on your way.  Congratulations.  The time will go by before you know it.

Hey glad to hear that you started your classes and that the first session went well. I was just thinking of you today on my way home from my class today and was gonna message you to see how everything went. It seems like everything is going to fly by and we will be there in no time. When is your last class? My last class is December 4th. When you think about it it really isn't that far away

Mine will be Dec 17th...  I could in all realization have surgery as early as 2 week later.
I have to make sure to do my food logs my excersice logs and get my labs done when they are ordered.

That is so awesome. They told me the same about the surgery date. But then again it all depends on where you choose and if they are super busy. I hope where I choose isn't too busy :) They did also tell me in my last class that they are no longer doing surgeries at UCLA. They didnt renew their contract... just thought I would let you know in case you were thinking of going there. Well talk to you soon

Hey Kat...happy to hear your orientation had no surprizes for you.  This forum is the best place in the world to get a heads up of what's coming ^_^  I know December seems a bit away...but just think what you will be giving yourself for a Christmas Present! What a GIFT!!  A new way to live your life..healthier and happier. Just be sure to follow their program...do what the doc says..and you'll find yourself on the Loser's Bench in no time at tal...LOL
Best of luck to you!

FANTASTIC!!!

I had my surgery done at Scripps La Jolla by Dr. Alan Wittgrove...
I had the greatest team and hospital care! I'm just sorry I live too far away for the support groups...

My best to you!

Congrats on a great first session. It can seem a little overwhelming, but I am glad you checked out OH first and were surrounded by the knowledge this wonderful community has to offer. The classes will seem to fly by. Scripps Mercy is really good. Looking foward to meeting a lot of your classmates!

Take care my friend!

Hugs, love, & friendship,
