Hello! New to this site, and scheduled for my first consult with the surgeon on Monday. I was wondering if there were any others in the Seattle or PNW area? Also, I was wondering if anyone knew of any in-person WLS meetups or support groups in the Seattle area that they would recommend? Thanks!

I absolutely LOVE my sleeve and have NO regrets at all. I know most say they wish they had done it sooner, but I think my timing is exactly when it needed to happen. I needed all the time it took before considering surgery to slowly cut down on the junk food and soda/diet soda to make changes necessary for me and my family. I and my ex husband are diabetics (I am no longer because of wls) so our kids have an even greater risk of being diabetic later in life. It was all worth it and as a result I had a lot less to lose as far as weight, and now an even more amazing chance to keep it off!

I am in Kent. Had surgery two weeks ago. I have searched for groups, but I wasn't very successful in finding one.

That's kinda a bummer. I was hoping to find a meetup, but no dice.

Awesome! Hopefully I'll get the green light on Monday from the surgeon saying I'm a good candidate for the sleeve/WLS

I'm in the Fife/Tacoma area. Dr. Srikanth has a monthly support group for his patients in Federal Way.

A group of are meeting in July in Federal Way if anyone would like to join! Most of us have been sleeved recently but any WLS at any stage would be welcome. There is an RNY and someone preop as well.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.
