So, today I'm seeing my surgeon, nutritionist and coordinator and I can't tell you how excited I am to be moving along with the process. There's a lot of information but I am ready and willing to make the steps to bettering my life. Anyone in the Bay Area going thru or has gone thru Kaiser Fremont? Who was your surgeon? How was your experience?

@rose333 I'm also new to this and will be going thru Kaiser Fremont as well even though I live in San Jose. Just got the courage to call them yesterday to schedule my first seminar. Good luck to you on your journey and I look forward to reading about it.

Hello there! So I guess this is where my journey begins... Back in August 2012 I was told by my doctor that my BMI qualifies me to have bariatric surgery. I was so excited to hear such great news, well to me it was great news. All my life I have been overweight and tried many, many times to lose weight with not much success. It took me 5 months to actually pick up the phone and set up an appt to join the first seminar about WLS. I have read so many postings on here (peeping since November) and watched many videos on YouTube and read a bunch of materials online that I've decided to go for it. I have my 1st class on February 8th to learn more about gastric bypass. I have to say that I am very excited to start this journey and thanks to many stories on here I am very much comfortable with moving forward. Please stay tuned as MY journey unfolds. Xoxo, PB&J's MaMa
