WE SHOULD CALL OURSELVES JUNE BABIES!

HELLO JUNE BABIES,

FOR WE ARE BEING REBORN THIS MONTH! 

I really like this June message board because all of us are going through surgery in the same month.  It's like our own group of brothers and sisters who know how each other feel.  We know what each of us are going through.  The anxiousness, the excitement, the proud fact of knowing soon this pain and suffering that we are experiencing will all be over soon.

It's going to be allot of work, we are going to have to press on even when we don't want to.  And we are going to have to understand that our families are very fearful right now and need to be comforted.  They love us, they can't help it!

We are going to do this thing and do it right!  I pray that all of us June babies add each other as friends and stay in touch.  We are really going to need each other for support.

But don't forget about our brothers and sisters of WLS  who have already been through this!  They have been a big help even if they don't know it.  I myself have read all of the post and laughed , prayed for, and sat back and wondered about some of people here.  Because some of y'all are crazy and ain't got it all!!!!!!!!!!  I be cracking up over here! 
I thought that I was crazy!  Although, through all messages I learned what to do, and really what not to do.  So all your messages are much needed.
Yet crazy are not we all need each other and that's a beautiful thing!

GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU.

I agree it would be good to stay in touch! It is always good when you find people that are starting the same journey at the same time! June will be a great month! I cannot wait until Dec to see how everyone is doing! Have a good weekend!

You said it well.  It is wonderful to have such a great support system available to us.

Another June baby here, 6/16!  My son's birthday (he'll be 10) and like you say, the first birthday for the rest of my life!

WOW, I'm a June Baby too!!June 1st for me! I have been on the clear liq diet for the last 3 days. Doing ok for now, looking forward to surgery just to be able to have full liq diet. Hope everyone is as excited as I am. Take Care, Pat K.

Hey there!   I'm one of those June "babes".   It will be fun to do this with the group!   It'll be nice to share our losses with each other.   And when we hit those inevitable "plateaus" its going to be nice to know that I'm not alone!

I'm a June baby too.  Looking forward to June 17!

me too June 15th 7am Yppie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!lol

I totally agree!  I get to have two birthdays six months apart, December original birth, and June Rebirth.  Can you say party and gift time!

Pfft.... I was a June baby before I got my surgery date, LOL. My birthday is on the 18th. :D

My surgery is on the 8th.... so I guess I'll be enjoying a smoothie on my birthday, instead of all the crap I used to eat before :P
