Glad to hear you have done so well. I'm sure there will be those days when you ask yourself why did I do this and then you will be seeing and feeling all the changes that are occurring and how good you feel and look. Then you will know. All my best to you for continued success, you have started your journey with your WLS. Sher L

Thank you everyone for your support and prayers.....My surgery was uneventful, everything went like expected. The day of surgery I was a bit scared and nervous (I should have had a Lap-band), but all my friends, collegues, and family put me at ease.... The day after surgery, I was feeling great, so happy with my decisioin....Then about 5pm I became nauseous and was given medicine...Boy, did I regret that....I felt miserable immmediately after. I was fighting with the nurses and I became non-compliant...I cried and regret what I had gone through...I HATED my decision.... Today is a new day, I am happy, I have the support and love of my family...............This is a new beginning and I'm looking forward to each day....Warm regards, Carolbear

Hi, I am Ken from Bothell, and had been banded on Tuesday at Dr. Kuri's office in Tijuana. It has been a great experience for me and the four others that were there. I am looking for a support group in the bothell, Bellevue, Lynnwood area, is there anyone out there? My surgery was text book and I am doing just fine. I cannot remember when I had not had some sort of comfort after any kind of medical procedure. I have gone from Manday evening 8pm to now Thursday without any of that. I am very happy as I have sleep apnea for the last five years and in denial for 20 years about my weight. After reading, and going to the Seattle Splash and seeing people first hand and their testimonies, I was sold. I thank God for people like Dr. Kuri and his delightful team for what they are doing.
