Topic: RE: Nurse Practioner Question?? Kaiser Help??
Hi,
How did everything go for you? I'm just starting with Kaiser and I was wondering if I will be weighed at the Weight Loss Info class I'm scheduled for the 14th in San Jose :)
thanks for your help!

Topic: RE: completed orientation through kaiser , so when do options classes start?
I spoke to my PCP early December and she made an appointment for me to attend at Weight Loss Surgery Info class in San Jose. 
Does anyone know if I will be weighed in at this class?
I'm super excited to start my journey and be the "squeaky" wheel with Kaiser :)

Hi Joyce,

Yes, this group is open to everyone regardless of surgeon, surgery type, etc.  Groups are also FREE to attend!  I just ask that you RSVP via the Meetup.com site (or by contacting me).

Our inital meeting is scheduled for 1/23/12.  Hope to see you there!

Topic: RE: I am getting nervous

I went through the same thing, it will be fine.  I highly recommend learning to resort to other means when your stressed out, not food.  Trust me if you get in the habit now, it will be easier post surgery. 

Good luck & hope it all goes well for you.

 I understand your nervousness. I have my pre-op meeting with the surgeon on Tuesday1/04/12.  I started my liquid diet yesterday 12/30/11.  My surgery is going to be the VSG.  I have started posting on you tube "journet2bthin".

Sounds pretty normal to me! So many what if's at this point. I think after your consult you'll feel better about things.
    Deep breaths, calm thoughts, you'll get there.

Three appointments in the next 10 days and I am having trouble sleeping. Should know then what the future brings for me. Doing a lil nervous eating which is not good, would hate another setback. Hopefully this will be a great start to the New Year.
