I just moved to Spokane from the Seattle area. I had my sleeve in 8/28/14. I've lost 78 lbs so far. I would love to go to a support group.

@@GenaH,

I will look around this weekend at home. I have a list of state wide support. They are a combination of hospitals, surgical centers, overeater's anonymous meetings and a few informal ones.

There is also a Washington State Bariatrics Group on Facebook:

Hi. I'm in the very early stages. Just a few weeks into my 6 months supervised weigh loss requirement. Is everyone else already post surgery? Or is the support group for someone anywhere in the process? I live north of Seattle in Lake Stevens, WA.

I wanted to say hello to everyone. I live in Arizona right now and will be having my surgery here. But at the beginning of 2016 we'll be moving to the Seattle area. So I thought it'd be fun to find some buddies in Washington and hopefully attend your support groups when I get up there.

I'm waiting for my surgery to be scheduled, but I imagine I'll be having my bypass in late August/early September.

Gina1209, see my post above about the Washington State Bariatric Facebook page. We just had a beach bonfire meetup that was very successful and other meet ups to come.

I'm here in Bellingham, grew up in Everett, and jumping through all the hoops to have the bypass surgery. It was supposed to be January 2017, but was just informed by the social worker at UWMC that I need to schedule my back surgery before the bariatric surgery. I feel like my "pause button" has just been pushed, and I'm reaching out because I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired of being stuck in a rut...

Anyone know of any meetings in the Whatcom County area???

I have not gone to a support group, no. I can see where this would be helpful a little later down the line. I'm only two weeks out.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
