Where did everyone go
Where is everyone? I remember there used to be lots of us on here nightly chatting, now it seems we've all disappeared, me included. But i'm back. We need to get others back and chat again. I miss that. I will do that at least 2 x's a week.
Hope all is well with everyone. Happy June to all.
Lisa J. in Mass
Hi, Lisa J. in Mass! The October 2005 board has been very quiet for a while now. I check the board every day, but there's just not much going on. I wonder how Deb P., Dennis, Kiki, and everyone else is doing.
Me, I'm still plugging along - have lost 187 pounds so far, and have another 40-50 to lose before having plastic surgery to remove the excess skin. I lose very slowly now and my body "settles" in to a new routine very quickly, so I'm constantly having to change things up if I want to keep losing. That's annoying, but it's the way my body works.
My health is 200% percent better; no more prescription meds, great blood pressure, very low resting pulse. Last round of blood work was good, but I'm due for another round to make sure all is still well. I'm exercising like a fiend; at this point, no exercise means no weight loss. Again, annoying but it's the way my body works.
Anyway, that's my life in a nutshell. Hopefully we'll generate some activity from our fellow October 2005 losers!

I'm still here Lisa. I check pretty much everyday. BUT the past week and a half has really been bad. I was in the ER twice with abdominal pain. They've diagnosed me with sigmoid diverticulosis. Some disease of your colon. I've been in alot of pain and I still don't feel real good. I've been real bummed out because I wanted to become healthy and then something else comes along and knocks me down again. Both ER doctors said that the bypass is a nasty surgery and that the complications afterwards are serious. They both have told me that this is a highly possible complication that I'm having. I'm not sorry I had this surgery..it has given me a big taste of what it feels like to be a healthy person.
Hope everyone else is doing well
