I am almost 6 years out for RNY and a total weight lost of 152 pounds..YAY right.. Well over the course of the last 12 months I have had several life curves that have sent me reeling. From a cheating spouse and a divorce to placing my adult child in a group home for the disabled, it has been a very difficult road. I found myself reaching for my comfort friend of food and have managed to pack back on 35 pounds. I am reaching out for some help advise on how to get back to the program and dump the 35 before it becomes 135. Has anyone re-gained and then had to re-lose? Any advise..words of wisdom..what worked for you??

Hi there,

It came to our attention that our surgeon (due to liability issues) has taken our FB support group off their intro paperwork.  We don't want to leave anyone out so if you are in the Seattle area and have Dr. Chebli as your surgeon or even if you have a different Dr and want to talk to fellow WLS folks feel free to finds us FB under "Dr. Chebli's Obesity Surgery Patients". It's a closed group so you won't have to worry about other people on your FB snooping and or finding out info.

It's that time of the month again! No, no that one.. support group time!

If you're in the Seattle area (Seattle, Eastside, Burien, Kent, Renton, Auburn) please join us at the Sizzler in Tukwila (near Southcenter mall). 

This week we're having a discussion about challenges we're experiencing. Whether you are 3 months or 3 years out we all need support and we all have challenges. Come lend your support to those who are in need and get some support for yourself at the same time.
