I am in the Tri cities butbhaving surgery in Spokane. Anyone near me?

I just met with Dr. Landerholm last week. I will be having my surgery after the 1st of the year, due to needing to change insurance plans. He was wonderful, did not talk to me like I am a sick child. I am very interested in making some sleeve buddies, pre and post op. I live in the Mill Creek/Snohomish area.

Yeah! I love Dr. Landerholm!!! Woohoo. I'm in Lake Stevens. 3 weeks post op as of today. I'm down 15 pounds and have hit my "3 week stall," but I know it will pass. You are going to love everyone there. Jillian is a sweetheart, and Bridget is really nice too. Dr. L really cares...he never talked down to me and treated me like he would treat his family members. They have such respect for their patients. I went to a few different clinics and doctors and never felt the same respect as I do at PSSC. Good luck and keep me posted. Maybe we can all go out for tea or something.

I drink iced tea and hot tea like it's going out of style now lol...before it was coffee

I'd love to get together in snohomish county sometime, I'm in arlington/granite area :-)

There is a meet up in Bothell, being planned for next month as we speak.....er...type! Hang on! Details coming soon!

Count me in! I defs want to be part of a supportive group!

I am in Gig harbor but more then happy to meet up north. Anyone in my area willing to carpool let me know and we can work something out once the date is set and the meeting site is published here. I would love to meet up with the Washington group!

Mis, I was gonna book something at the Bellevue library because the Bothell library meeting room is closed due to construction! The Lyon's Den is impossible to get a room in the evening too! Let me know how things progress, I live very nearby Bothell. I am nearly 3 years out and maintaining below goal. Happy to support you in any way organizing something here at the north end, but I am generally out horse back riding, cowboy chasing (haha, thats a joke) and dancing on the weekends so week nights work better for me!

If your going cowboy chasing I want to come. Lol

I live near bothell and work in Bellevue. So any of that is fine with me

now, that is my idea of a support group!!

@@CowgirlJane, Thanks! I was going to hit you you for sure about this. We are looking into the cafe but on a non football Sunday mid afternoon. We can come to consensus on time eventually.

Mid afternoon on a Sunday would be good for me too! I cannot do week nights due to my spouse working second shift at the Lazy B.

I like mid-afternoon on Sunday too - and Bothell or Bellevue works fine for me. I living in Issaquah, and am happy to drive to either. When are we meeting? DO we have a date yet?

Weekends work great for me too, I haven't been to a single support group so I'm looking forward to this :-)

Below is the details on the local chapter support group:
