Is the group meeting at Arden Fair on June18?

It's actually the 25th and it will be the last meeting. And Angel (the facilitator) won't be there. She is unable to lead the meetings due to a time conflict, and Kaiser has decided to pull their support for our meeting. Major bummer!

Hey winecountrygirl let me know how your progress goes!!! Congrats to ya!!!! I'm excited too!!!

Sunshine, they set me up with a different doctor and I told the woman scheduling my first surgeon appointment that I would prefer to wait for Dr. Baggs. I had to wait a month but it didn't matter because I knew I'd have to shed the pre-op pounds anyways. I didn't have much to lose by the time I saw him. Your surgeon follows you forever so make sure you get someone that you really like.

Hey winecountrygirl let me know how your progress goes!!! Congrats to ya!!!! I'm excited too!!!

Totally girl! I have already dropped 14 lbs. I'm not sure how much they are going to tell me I need to lose but I hope to be near that goal or at it when I meet with the surgeon. I'd love to get this surgery in 2 months...I'm motivated!

I had my pre-op appt with Dr Alami on Tuesday, everything went well, then..... I wake up the next morning with a major cold. Dang.... I spoke with one of the nurses, she said to wait and see how I feel on Monday. (Surgery is Wednesday). So not cool!

Hi Heather,

I am just checking on you to see how your feeling. I really hope you are feeling better.

I will be finishing my last meeting- and may have some extended support meetings on my deck- pool side- if your interested... totally informal- just share/chat and ask...

My wife and I have decided to share our stories/tricks/tips if any groups need guest speakers.

just trying to return it...
