Just looking to start a new thread or meet some NEW people that have had Kaiser sleeve surgery or are going to have sleeve surgery soon. I am Chrissy I live In Sacramento. I was JUST sleeved on June 16, 2010! I was sleeved at Kaiser Richmond by Dr. Im. Looking for new people, Fun, Friends, new issues, recipes, suggestions, or just to talk!

Cherice, big big congratulations for hitting your normal BMI! That's such a cool accomplishment. I hope you're really proud of yourself.

Thanks Lee...it looks like you are right behind me

Drumroll. I just hit the overweight category. OBESITY BE GONE FOREVER. I now have 29.5 lbs to go to my goal of a normal bmi. Some days I wonder if I'll make it there.

Congratulations LisaLisa. I remember when my surgeon told me that. I was over the moon happy!

Are you at goal Lee? When did you have surgery? Mine was January 5th...the day before David. I'm so happy I had it. Changed my life.

Wow, LisaLisa! Congratulations!!! You did that so fast and I bet you feel so much better, as well. I hope i can be overweight someday real soon. On the surface, that sounds totally wrong to say but as you know...it's the truth. Keep up your great work!

You will be overweight before you know it. You have done amazing Kawika.

Lisa, I'm not at goal yet. I have 11 pounds to "normal". I had my surgery 2/17/2010, so I'm further out that you all are. It's a great ride, enjoy the journey. You're doing great!

Congrats :Banane21:

Happy to hear everyone is doing well and reaching overweight!

I'm 1.1 lbs from scheduling surgery! I'm nervous and excited, I've been waiting so long and things are finally going to be moving forward. Yikes!

Hope you're all doing well. I can't wait to post that I actually have a surgery date!

Hi Heather,

I'm so darn excited for you. I've been watching your progress over on the lapband site for over a year. You of everyone I know deserves this surgery so much. I'm really glad you're getting the Sleeve. You're going to love it! Get those darn 1.1 pounds off and get scheduled so we can all start celebrating.

Heather, I agree with everything that Lee said <3 !

Hey Ash, Wednesday night is the 8th anniversary of the Kaiser Bariatric Department. Maybe you can grab one of the girls and come on over to the meeting. It should be fun. I'd love to see you!

I just had a phone appt today with Kirk, and now I have an appt with Dr Alami next week. I could have had one tomorrow morning, but I just didn't have enough notice to get the time off work. Dang! I'm hoping to know my surgery date next week! Yippie!

Heather, this is fantastic news! I can't wait to hear your date so that we can all start visualizing you on the Loser's Bench!!!
