Hi All. Newbie here in Vacaville. I'm pre-op going to South Sac. Kaiser having the sleeve done by Dr.Grinberg and so far they are all GREAT there. I reached my goal weight this past Monday and I'm going tomorrow to get my surgery date WOOHOO!! Can't wait! .... So with all that said doors Angie know about a support group that meets in Vacaville or close by on weekends?

Anyone in Los Angeles need a sleeve buddy? Just sleeved 16 days ago in Mexico. Need a friend / mentor cause I was given no after care.

You can feel free to message me any time, I was sleeved almost four months ago,, but spent much time self paying for band fills prior to that, so am familiar with both sides of the coin!

For the person above that inquired as to how long process was, I didn't have to go through any since I was a Lapland fail with a previous doc and had been seeing doc Martin for that for over a year...

Shout out to my Options Program sis & bros. Finshed Options on Jan 30th. Have not met surgeon yet but I will be sleeved at Kaiser South Bay. PITFALL: Letter from Options RN stating mu vitimin D is still low and I need to repeat my labs in 6 weeks. I'm assuming that I won't meet the surgeon until my vitimin D is normal.

Hi,

Sorry if I am reposting, but this forum is not very intuitive. I am looking for monthly support groups in the Bay Area, CA? Prefer the South Bay, Mountain View or Palo Alto or Fremont.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

I know Kaiser has support groups all over. To help you find them goto Yahoo and look for Kaiser bariatric support groups

Good Samaritan on the San Jose/ Los Gatos border has support meetings just google

"Good Samaritan bariatric support"

And you can find info on it
