Hey, where are all the Maysters?
Hey I am here just do not get online much anymore.....amazing how that changes isn't it!!! Wow 2 years out May 29th. I have my follow up on that day. I was the first patient in that office. So I am not sure who is more excited LOL! I have been holding at the same weight for around a year (give or take a few pounds) so I am just now refocused and working on that last 30lbs.
I have been able to "pay it forward" and attend my surgeons seminars or round on patients the day after surgery. And then actively participating in support group. Helps keep me focused and on track. LOL
Big change is that like tomorrow for instance. It i s Mother's day and we are looking forward to a family day at the gym. yes, that is a big change.
It is good to see everyone!

Donna - it's great to see you!
I love this: "It is Mother's day and we are looking forward to a family day at the gym. yes, that is a big change." Wow, that is an amazing thing for you to have accomplished - such a change of routine celebration - good for you!

I'm still floating around too! I realized it was getting close to my surgiversary date and dropped in to see who was still here. Nice to see so many friends and everyone looking so skinny!
I'm hovering around 200 lbs these days, down from 370. I got sick a couple weeks ago and managed to drop an extra 10 lbs. I call it the bacterial sinus infection diet and I've set up a kissing booth if anyone wants to get started. I can say with complete confidence that you can literally eat anything you want on this diet and be successful because, my friend, you won't want to eat anything whatsoever. Consider yourself lucky if you manage to stay hydrated.
The Memorial Day weekend has inspired me to create a barbecue tailored to gastric bypass patients. It's a little Weber grill that is just big enough for one charcol briquette. It's very efficient on charcol and it makes your portion sizes look bigger. Not only that, but there's practically no waiting. Your charcoal goes from cold to ready-to-cook in under 5 minutes. I'm going to see if the Sham-Wow guy is available to pitch it on late-night infomercials.
Anyway, happy surgiversary all you Maysters!
