Hello everyone, My name's Kristen.. I live in the Sacramento area and I'm just starting out & hoping to get the Gastric sleeve. I started the Optifast program through Kaiser last September and have lost 120lbs.. I still need to lose another 100 at least and I'm hoping that this surgery will be the tool to help me achieve that! I have a class on 01/06/2015.. after that I was told to let my doctor know if I'm wanting the surgery and we'll go from there. Does anyone else have Kaiser? About how long from start did it take for you to have surgery? I'm very curious about this because I've seen that this can vary quite a bit. Also - anyone else in the Sacramento area? I'd love new friends.. someone to catch a movie with, go for a hike, workout, etc. I hope everyone's having a great Friday! ~Kristen~

@@Elode Thank you! I'm very excited! I'm so ready for a change! I've thought about surgery throughout the years.. but this is the 1st time that I feel that I'm really ready for it. I hope you're having a great weekend! Kristen

@ Thank you! I'm very excited! It seems like it's taking forever to get here! - but I know it won't be that long. Congrats to you on your loss to date! That's awesome!

@@happymama2014 - how long did it take from the start to your surgery? I'm in Sacramento as well and will be going to a class on 01/06/15.. I was curious how long it takes. Thanks Kristen

You look amazing!! ~Kristen~

Congratulations! You look amazing!! ~Kristen~

Congratulations!!! I am in the very beginning stages here.. I went to the doctor on Tuesday because I threw by back out and brought up the subject of getting the gastric sleeve. She suggested I get lap-band - but I'm pretty positive this is what I want. I have my 1st meeting 01/06/2015. I can't wait to start on this new journey. Again, congrats to you!! Kristen
