About

       Welcome! We each personally know how necessary and important it is to regularly participate in a WLS Support Group if we wish to achieve continued success with this life-changing surgery. It truly is no fun doing this alone: we can feel isolated, alone, think that our problems are unique, and struggle to find the right answers. We can get discouraged and wonder where to turn for help and information.

       The surgery we have each had causes changes in 16 areas of our lives. Working together we can and will support each other as we embrace these changes in our lives. No matter which doctor performed your surgery, or which hospital was utilized, you are welcome at North West Weight Loss Surgery Support Group meetings and functions. 

The North West WLS Support Group is open to one and all, no matter which doctor is your doctor, no matter which hospital you attended for your surgery, no matter if you went to Mexico, no matter if your surgery was an RNY, lap band, or whatever, or even if you are just thinking about having any type of weight loss surgery. 

We are not affiliated with Northwest Hospital.  We are completely non-partisan, open to one and all. 

Come join us.   Bring your significant other.  Bring a friend or two.  Bring along your friends at work you know need to gain control over their morbid obesity issues and you know want to live their life to the fullest enjoying every moment and not suffering because they can't get up off the floor because they weigh too much.

We have oodles of space!  All Redmond Pancake House asks us is to order a drink or something to defray the use of the room.  Many of us decide to eat because their food is delicious and they have come to know us for our quirkiness about not drinking while we eat and eating very, very, very small meals: like a taste or two.

Directions?  520 to almost the end.  Right onto Redmond-Fall City Road.  On right hand side of street.  RSVP 425-885-2634.

      *  3rd Thursday of each month.  Redmond Pancake House, 17621 Redmond Way, Redmond WA  98052 (425-885-0922)  7:00 -- 9:00 p.m.  

 
       Please be sure to invite those you know would benefit from participating and let me know who you are inviting, so that I can be fully prepared to serve you to the best of my ability.  Call me at 425-885-2634, send me an e-mail ([email protected]) or leave a message at this site.

     *   Q&A Teleconference Winter Program Schedule. 

Every winter, our weather in the Greater Seattle area becomes most dicey.  We never seem to know whether we'll have our homes innundated with water from flooding rivers, rain pelting us making driving impossible, snow dumping on us freezing our streets making them impassible, lights being off and our homes cold because we've lost our electricity, etc. 

We find that it is much easier for us to get together over the telephone.

This year, let us strive to gather together over the telephone on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of each month (December through February) at 8:00 a.m.  PDT.   Simply call  723-432-0800 and be connected with great folks who share this life journey following weight loss surgery together.
