Maine Members

I am looking to find any friends out there who have been through or will be going through bariatric surgery. I know there are a lot of women/men in Maine who have had it done but yet there aren't really any groups for patients. I am looking to become either online or in person friends....someone to chat with, lend a ear to, go for walks or the gym...ask or help with questions....we all can use support. Have an AMAZING DAY :)

Hello i would like to make a friend.

Hi. I'm from Maine too. Going through EMMC for sleeve gastrectomy. expected surgery date is end of October or early November. would love to have some local contacts too!!!

Consider me a local contact.  I had gastric bypass on November 14, 2014.  I had to go all the way to Mexicali Bariatric Center to have it done.  I'm coming along well.  Did you have your surgery?  I'm planning to attend the EMMC Support Group tomorrow, 1/2/15, will you be there?  I haven't gone before.  They said anyone would be welcome even if they didn't have their surgery in Bangor.  I hope that turns out to be true.

Hi! I did have surgery! It was oct 17th, 2014. Best thing I've ever done! I do not attend bangor support groups (although id like to) because it's too much of a drive. But I do attend a once monthly support group in waterville. It's through emcc, open to the public, and free. :) congrats on your surgery! I hope all is well. Personally, I feel great

I'm from Augusta...having surgery at Maine General...if you'd like to know my story I have started a blog: http://pursuingasleeve.blogspot.com/2014/04/and-so-it-starts.html.  Would love to be friends with anyone going through this journey. :)
