Happy 10th Anniversary Support Group

Tue, 15 Mar 2011 20:26:00 -0700

Hard to believe but our group has been meeting every month for a decade now. Not that many groups can say the same, sadly. Equally hard to believe that this month also marked the 10th anniversary of my own surgery (on March 6).

Congrats to us on continuing to attend ...

From today's meeting: how I've changed...

Sat, 15 Jan 2011 21:46:00 -0800

Naturally, on the drive home from today's support group meeting I thought more about Helena's question to me of "how have I changed" since my surgery and, while my answer opened up a big can of worms for us, it wasn't the true answer to her question so here goes. ...

9th anniversary came and went

Tue, 09 Mar 2010 18:00:00 -0800

Hard to believe that my 9th anniversary did arrive and I completely forgot! Yet, I just wrote you mere days beforehand about it. It trips me out to think that it's so easy to forget such an important anniversary. I knew almost to the second it felt when my first ...

Our 9th anniversary is upon us

Greetings East Bay Bariatric,

Hard to believe that (1) in mere days I will be celebrating my 9th anniversary as a post-op WLS person (March 6) and (2) this month celebrates the 9th anniversary of the founding of East Bay Bariatric. Has it really almost been a decade?

Many times over the ...

For our February meeting

Tue, 16 Feb 2010 20:01:00 -0800

Let me know what topics you might like us to discuss at the meeting. Bring your "Magic Moments" and maybe even something you just want to toot your horn about, like trying a new form of physical fitness.

See you at the meeting,
Kimberlee

We're the largest group in the state!

Had to blog and share with you and that - thanks to you - we are the largest group in California!! Membership-wise, not weight-wise. =)

We are also in the Top 10 for most members nationwide which is a tremendous accomplishment too because the groups that have more members than ...

2nd largest group in the state!

Hello East Bay Bariatric,

Wanted to jot this down to celebrate that we are the second largest OH group in the State of California!! Woo Hoo. Thank you for joining. It will take a miracle to be the largest group as that top spot goes to the state's lap band group ...

Checking in and updating

Hi Members,

It has really been a while since I've had a moment to be online. Ever since my daughter, Kira, started walking a few months back, I've had minimal time to be online. But she's worth it so what can I say. We're doing Stroller Strides together (a one-hour exercise ...
