I WOULD LIKE TO GO GATHERING PARTY AGAIN AND I REMEMBER CHERYL METIONED ABOUT HAVING A PARTY AT HER HOUSE THERE ARE GREAT SPEAKERS AT L M GROUP SUPPORT LAST NIGHT AND I LEARNED ABOUT CHANING NEW BEHAVIOR AND DR BELL BROUGHT PLASTIC SURGEON WITH HIM AND I LEARNED SOMETING FROM THAT TOO. MAGGIE, SORRY WE MISSED YOU LAST NIGHT ! TAKE READY TO GO WORK YUCKY! kATHY k

Kathy, I to was there, I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to meet you! I finally got to meet Linda Wasserman. I just love the support group. They have such interesting speakers and everyone is great! Hopefully we'll meet sometime soon

Sounds like I missed a good meeting! Hopefully I'll make it to the next one. I was really bummed out about not being able to attend, but I was asleep before it was over. Maggie

Hi, I too was there and thought the speaker was well informed. I would hope that to the majority of those pre/post ops, that was mostly a review. Ok Ok, I know I'm a young pre-op puke that doesn't know anything but, I HOPE that all the persons getting into this life changing journey educate themselves about these things (nutrition and eating healthy) BEFORE we make the plunge. My take on it. AND I think, with no disrespect for the speaker, the speaker was a bit biased toward her particular weight loss opinions. She runs a weight loss company, and got very defensive when Dr. Bell stated a well known fact about long term weight loss statistics through dieting, a way she seems to advocate. Anyway......... The question and answer period with the 2 Dr.'s was very informative and would go back to that meeting for that alone. And last but not least, It was nice meeting some friends from this site, you know who you are, (Hi Ellie and Linda!) Enough for now. "Lose to Live not Live to Lose!" MikeMc
