chicogirl3 17 Posted December 31, 2014 Just found this. I'm in chico too. Sleeved by dr. Simchuch (Ludwig assisted). Who was your surgeon and how are you doing? I was sleeved by dr Simchuk as well. My Surgery was on 11/25/14. How are you doing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seela 1,187 Posted January 2, 2015 I was sleeved by dr Simchuk as well. My Surgery was on 11/25/14. How are you doing.hi, sorry, I'm not on here very much anymore. .. I hope you're doing well, it gets easier, I promise! It's been 14 months and I'm doing great... very healthy and all my labs are good... I lost 95 lbs and one of these days I'll kick my ass* into gear and lose the last 15 lbs, lol... it's definitely harder now because I have to really watch my diet and make good choices, but I keep up on it daily. I moved to Florida so I'm not in Chico anymore, but I hope your experience with Simchuck was as great as mine.♡ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

62race 14 Posted January 3, 2015 I went to my first at kaiser Campbell. You don't have to be a kaiser member to go. It was small but maybe because it was right before Christmas. Very nice helpful people in various stages of post op. I plan on going to the next one on January 28th at 6pm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
