Hi Janome

I would go on the wwww.blazeonline.com/wls and www.wlsforum.net websites and post this message as well.

I have a friend in Kamloops that is on the www.blazeonline.com/wls website.

Congrats on your band surgery, let us know how it goes.

Hi Janome

No problem, I live in North Vancouver so if you want to talk you can always email [email protected]

I'm RNY postop, 2 years in February 2011 and down 150 lbs with 50 lbs to go.

Hi Janome

I live south of 100 Mile House. Not exactly in the lake city, but on the way to Kamloops. I had RNY January 15, 2010 and am thoroughly enjoying my new life. congrats on your Band. I hope it went well. Let me know.

Hey Lani,

 I live in Lillooet and had surgery May 20 (RNY).  How is it going?  Are you still losing as much as you had hoped?  I find my weight loss has really slowed and I am really having to work at it.

 

Janome,

I have a neighbour who just had surgery at False Creek in August.  I will see if I can pass her name on to you when she comes back from her latest travel adventure. 

 

 

Hi Ruby

Everything is going well. It's good to hear from you. My loss has definitely slowed down. I am about 10 lbs. from my goal. Have lost 110, goal 120. The last 5 lb. has taken over a month. What a change from the beginning. I would love to lose that last 10, but if I stay where I am, that's ok too. I never thought I would see my weight at 160 lbs. again. And I feel great, my type 2 diabetes is gone and so are all my aches and pains. So if I never make 150, that's fine.
Do you ever get up this way, or even to Kamloops?

Lani
