How are you doing? Are you going to a support group meeting in the area? I had my surgery May 7th. and am doing well. Back to work and zero pain.... only mild discomfort.

I'm doing good. I have not started going to any support groups yet. I've been busy with my son getting him ready for prom and graduation. May and June are really busy months for me. Maybe after all the graduation stuff is done. Glad to hear you are doing well. Good luck on your journey.

I am up for a meeting let me know.

I was recetly banded on May 26th and would really love to meet with people who have been through it as well. I live near Long Beach and the OC (right in the middle in Cypress). Please let me know if there is one available. This summer is ideal for me and any evening week is good for me.

Hi everyone,

I know that I have spoke to some of you about starting a monthly support group meeting. I'm ready to do it and wanted to know when everyone, who is interested, is available. It would be at my house in Westminster. I'm off of the 405 @ Beach. I was thinking of doing it on a Thursday night about 7:00. Enought time for everyone to get home from work, get dinner, and maybe relax a little before meeting up. I wanted to schedule one for this month and really want to get the ball rolling. I was thinking the 25th. Let me know what you all think. You can respond here or email me directly for more info at mamabutercup@yahoo.com Hope to hear from you all soon.

Hi Tiffeny,

Did the support group meeting above ever take place? I live in Norwalk, CA and work in Buena Park. I would love to find a local monthly support group to attend.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
