Ft Knox area?
Hi Shannon,
This board moves slow so there should be a few responses to your question eventually. I am in the Louisville area which as you know is about 45-60 minutes north of you. There actually are a few gals I know of in the Ft. Knox/E-town area who are post-WLS. PatMBo and Sol (I teachpreK) are both down in that area. My sis is post-WLS herself and in the Rineyville area but she isn't online.
There's a good-sized group of us gals from the Norton's Bariatric Group and Dr. S's that hang out together although we are spread out pretty far. Every few weeks we will trek in from Glasgow/E-town/Owensboro/Cincy/Louisville and a few places in Indiana for a Bariatric Babes Shindig. We used to be very active on this board until one of us (not me!) lured the rest of us over to Facebook! Now we only come over here sporadically because we are doing all we can to keep up with each other over there!
Just wanted to say hello and welcome to KY!!
Are you on FB too?? If so look me up! I'm Rebecca Martin Talley over there.

Shan Zro-
Hi I am I teach pre-K. Welcome to the area. I do live in Etown and remember all to well what it was like to be new to the area.
The gals are great and have been the most amazing support to me as I ventured thru this journey. Rebecka is a super woman and also a bandster! She is friendly supportive and truely amazing.
I used TriCare for my surgery and have to say the support groups in Louisville are great. I do not get to go as often as I would like but, when i do it is always worth it. I hope that you call Norton and find out about the support group- you will meet some amazing ladies and find lots of fun!
All the best to you in your adjustment to the area....pm me if you have any questions you think I can answer or wonder.

I used Dr. Shina out of Louisville. I really like him and he is a good doc for me. I would say shop around until you find one you build a rapore with. IT really is quite important you feel comfortable. My hubby and mom both liked him too. He is not a warm fuzzy person all the time, but he DOES see you when you go to your appointments. He talks to me and answers my questions and is a first rate surgeon. So that is what I wanted.
Many others love Tanner and Geller for band- and my other friend had tanner for by pass. I had by pass and have been very pleased.
if you have anymore questions do not hesitate to contact me in a message. I will try to check while I am in Cali, cali, cali, I'm goin back to Cali!

Hi ShanZro! I have worked at Fort Knox for 30 years and had gastric bypass three years ago by Dr. Shina. I have gone many times to the Bariatric Support group that is held at the Norton Suburban Hospital monthly. I would love to meet with you just to talk and get myself back on track. I have gained about 20 lbs of my 100 lbs lost back and am frantic!!!
