Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Hey NorCals! Where is everyone from?



Recommended Posts

I am thinking maybe there will be at least some closer to me so we could also have a meetup- I wold be fine going to Fremont or another place across the bay if necessary but my nerve pain in my back does not allow a really long drive like Sacto ;-(

In any case I'd love everyone to tell where they are from!

Hi Meggie!!

I live in Folsom in the Sacramento Valley!

I have to go to Richmond on June 16th do you live close to there? If so, maybe we could meet somewhere!

Hugs,

Kelly ;)

Well I guess most already know this but I live in Sacramento. Was born and raised here too! I'd like to mosey someday though, and I'm thinking either the Palm Desert area or even Arizona. Love that heat, and even more now that I get cold so easily!!!

I'm in San Jose. I could definitely drive to Fremont or RWC or Sunnyvale as someone suggested. I believe Irene (LilMissDiva) posted some possible dates: 7/9 and 7/25 I believe. I'll be out of town 7/25 but I may be able to make the 7/9. I'm having my surgery this Monday so frankly I can't say how I will be be then. I am hoping "just fine" :-). Also, I don't mind going up north more. At some point I would love to also meet those of you up toward the Sacramento area. Sorry if am going all over the place. I'm a little stressed with my date getting closer. I may just post about this. Be well everyone!!!

I'm from San Jose. I attend the support group at Kaiser Fremont the second and fourth Friday of each month (except this month we are not meeting on the 10th). The Kaiser support group is free and open to all. I'd love to meet up with other VST members before or at the support group.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
