alenaz2015, congrats on your successful surgery. This is just the beginning. I will join you soon, same Dr on Jan 13.

Hi Jamie, ya, the pre-op is a bit change. so far I'm OK with it. this is my fourth day and feeling pretty good. I'm using a protien powder that is plant based and really filling. my surgery date is Jan 13th, Tijuana with Venezuela. very excited!!

I did a breakfast smoothie for couple weeks before I started and often had a salad for dinner. Helped me to figure out what I liked for smoothie. Most of all by the time I started preop I knew I could do it.

I'm from Seattle area. I'm arriving on the 12th and staying at Marriott that night. Let's meet up. Kay

i am going through Mexico Bariatric center and my Dr is Venezuela at MI hospital. Where /who are you using. I'll be at the Marriott.

Rebecca Friesen my surgery is day before yours, same Dr. We need to say hi!! I'm going alone and would love to check in on you!

I am using MBC as well Dr Venezuela on January 13th. I like this group because of nutritionist before and after as well as the Facebook page. having a woman surgeon is a personal choice and I think she has a good background. I have Cindy as coordinate, best to call. Get on the Facebook page for MBC, it rocks!

I hear that the Lyons den closes early on Dec 14th I will call to verify

Wow, so early, that is exciting. do you have to do a pre op diet?

Dr Venezuela at MI hospital so excited

I'm scheduled for January 13 in Mexico, the sleeve. Am starting to wean myself into the Pre-op. Smoothie for breakfast, water!! Bmi 55, 60 years young. So excited to be doing this. Healthy me here I come!!!

Try sit and be fit, it's on pbs, great workout for any age any weight. I'm 60, bad feet, walking is impossible. Also chair yoga, Google for lots of choices. I'm doing the sleeve end of December. Excited to have a tool that will help me get healthy.

I live in Bothell which is right off 405 a couple miles from the Junction of i5 and 405 North Eastside

I'm all for a support group for any level of wls. Personally the physical part is pretty limited right now. I swim as my feet don't manage much else. I am in the very beginning stages of wls. Start by seeing primary Dr teusday. No surgery till January at least. I am a mental health counselor, group developer and 60yrs old. Love what I do. Group dynamics for support groups need simple clear guidelines created ideally by group. Looking forward to helping primal

Hi misformimi, I would love to help organize a group. I know a place in Bothell where we could meet. Lyons den coffee shop. I can check into using one of there private meeting rooms.
