barix support for delaware

i got the check and will sign the lease next tuesday or wednesday....it will be first wednesday of every month starting Jan 4.2006 at 700pm at mt hope church, concord rd in Aston,PA right off rt#452 between baltimore pike (rt#1) and I-95, I will be the support leader and i am looking at this as a chance for me to always be excited about what i am accomplishing...seeing people who are pre-op's all excited as their journey begins and people in their first weeks grabbing at their new life, i believe will always keep the desire within me burning.As i hope to help people and support them i am hoping for the same in return...I know i do not know it all about this surgery and do not mind being a student as i continue to learn and share that knowledge to as many people that want it. I am embracing this challenge to take on such a responsibillity and believe in my ability to keep people excited and motivated to achieve their personal goals. It is my hope that people who come for support that are carrying rocks on their shoulders can leave the rocks there and leave with a renewed confidence..if that happens it will be successful. I will post a reminder.... if any barix alumni want to be a part of this group. I respect and look up to so many here...the invitation is wide open to all. email me if you need anymore info...all barix patients should have recieved letters with all the info!!!!!!!!! thanks again for being part of my support here on these boards.

Tom, Good news. I promise to make it to your meeting. Now you have to promise to make it to one of mine. Healthy Beginnings. 2nd Thursday of the month. January 12th. Email me for details & directions. For my other Delawarean's, Aston is only a few miles from the PA/DE line. So who'll be coming with me to support Tom???? Let me know. We can show him some Delaware love. Elissa

Let me know what time you are going and perhaps we can ride together? I would like to meet this famous Tom Tyler and wish him luck with his group. This is great that he is starting one on the first week of the month......Just in case I miss other ones I have another option. Debbie

Tom an Elissa, Count me in for the meeting. I don't ever think there can be too many cause I have learned at least one new thing at each meeting! Have a great holiday and I;ll see you there. Love, Kathleen

Kathleen & Debbie, Sounds like a plan. Call me and we will coordinate the trip. Elissa Kathleen, How are you doing???? Hope your holiday was good. E

Is this meeting for both bypass and lap band?
