How are y'all doing on your journey? Do we want to share a monthly update?

Oh, and I just want to say dr. Schuster rocks!! I love how great he is, and I'm thrilled I chose him!

I am going to be sleeved April 13th with Dr garcia in Tijuana. I originally went to a seminar at banner gateway but sadly my insurance has a wls exclusion. I look forward to changing my life. I am in queen creek. Does anyone go to the banner support groups?

Yes there's a few of us on here.. I haven't been to a banner support group, but I have a feeling I will be soon.. Even if its just so I can hang with my 3/27 friends --

Omg. Ate too fast and now I'm dying. Dammit. I wait too long to eat and then eat too freaking fast. Miserable!

No one has met up as far as I know but I am definitely in! I live and work in Buckeye.

What works best for everyone?

Days, nights, weekends?

We should also pick somewhere central... I know we are spread all over the Valley.

Evenings or weekends work best for me
