Jill from Florence

Jill  wouldn;t do the liquid diet until dr. Tom tells you.  It is the hardest thing to stick to.  You need it more after surgery for healing.  So just wait.  Don;t worry you will lose plenty of weight once you have the surgery. Amy

You will really glad you joined OH, especially if you are not able to get support group meetings.  I am enjoying the information I receive from others here.  I am relatively new and have only had three fills.   I have a long way to goal but am looking foward to the encourage received from Kentucky. The best advise I can give is follow the instructions, don't drink when you eat, exercise, and chew chew, chew.  Take care and keep in touch.  I wish you the best.   Z, Providence, KY

HI JILL,  CONGRATULATIONS................YOU ARE IN GREAT HANDS.  I OWE SO MUCH TO DR TOM.  I AM 2YEARS AND 3 MONTHS OUT AND I HAVE NO REGRETS.  THE TIME WILL FLY BY.........JUST THINK WHERE YOU WILL BE IN A YEAR.  JUST READ ALL YOUR STUFF AGAIN AND IF YOU HAVE TIME DO IT AGAIN.  THAT BOOK BECOMES YOUR BIBLE.  IT HAS EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN IT AND IF YOU CAN'T FIND THE ANSWER CALL TARYN.  NO QUESTION WAS EVER TOO SMALL.  SHE WAS A GODSEND FOR ME THE COUPLE TIMES I NEEDED SOMETHING.   GOOD LUCK BTW IF YOU NEED TO, OR BETTER WORDING, WANT TO,  COME TO THE POST OP CLASS NEXT WEEK.  IT REALLY WILL HELP JUST BEING WITH PEOPLE WHO ALREADY HAVE HAD IT DONE.
