Anyone in Issaquah, WA?



Recommended Posts

Hi,

I am new to this site, new to bariatric surgery (only decided a few weeks ago). AND I am new to Issaquah (lived in Seattle until a few months ago).

So.... I could REALLY use some friends. I don't know anyone in my new town. And I only personally know one person who has had bariatric surgery (my husband's aunt who lives in Seattle who got sleeved this year and has taught me a lot).

I plan to get a RNY gastric bypass as soon as I qualify (about June 2017 or so). There is a lot to learn and I would love to make some friends along this journey.

Cheers!

Congratulations!

How are you feeling?

My sister had surgery about 11 years ago, and I have 3 co-workers who have had the surgery.

Hello! I am over in Seattle and had RNY in 2006 :). I am brand new to this site/app but I was happy to see a local post.

I am willing to help answer anything I can :).

I live in Port Orchard, WA and I had RNY on 9/27/16. I am 6 months out. I would love to answer questions and be a support for you. My husband just had RNY three weeks ago. It's not easy but totally worth it. I have lost 87 lbs since last year.

Hi there! I live in Bremerton. I’d love to start a support group in this area. I’m going to call my team at a Kaiser and see if they have recommendations?

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
