Topic: RE: Exciting News for me!
Oh, how exciting! If you are free on Saturdays, we'd love to see you at the Burnsville/Eagan coffee group at 8:30 am.
This week at the Panera in the BVL mall. We sit right by the door and we are the group who drinks protein shakes and water, and laughs really loud.
I went to these groups before I had my surgery and it was the BEST thing I could have done. I met great people, and they really helped me get ready for surgery.
I hope you are free and can come!

Topic: DS'ers near Duluth?
Anyone? I just want a show of hands. I want a support group up here SO bad. There are some with Essentia Health but they don't do DS up here.
Add me on here and lets try to get a coffee or support group or something together!

Topic: RE: Looking for VSG to DS Revision
Dr. Leslie in the University of MN practice occasionally does the DS lap, but he may give your friend the same advice as Dr. I. I've also heard that Dr. Peter Kelly at St. Paul Surgeons does DSs but I also believe he only does them open.

Topic: RE: 5K run this Saturday!!!
Good Luck to you! Just finishing is a major accomplishment - YAY YOU for trying!
Me, I've got permanently crappy knees, I'd be amazed if I ever ran again. Hell, I shock myself when I 'trot' to catch a phone call at work!
Report back Monday -

Topic: RE: WAKE UP, MINNESOTA!!!
It makes complete sense, sweet cheeks.
The thing is, and I've said this alot - to myself as much as others - when you LEAST want to participate in any kind of support (boards, coffee, etc...) is when you MOST need to force yourself to do so! DO NOT let yourself slide down that slippery slope, DO NOT let that vicious negative spiral suck you completely in!
You know you can do it. And you know the stresses and shyt that are trying to sabotage the progress you've already made. You know you have your tool, you know how you need to be using it, and you know when you make bad choices. The trick is figuring out how to break the destructive behaviors in favor of honoring your tool and putting it back to work for you.
(Darla, are you listening to yourself?)
Love you, Marsha Marsha Marsha... hope we can figure out a coffee sometime soon! Once the weather (IF the weather) cooperates, I will make a roadtrip out to Hutch ~ I promised you I would, and I intend to KEEP my promise!!
Love you

Congrats Kimberly...I am so happy for you!!
I was getting ready to run in a 5K...fell and broke my hip. This happened a couple years ago. Now I can walk about 2 miles at a time but don't know if I will be running again.
Hugs....connie d

Topic: RE: Away for Week
Sounds awesome! I hope the weather cooperates with the motorcycle and all - saw a poor guy out on his in the rain Wednesday, looked miserable. So HERE'S TO SUNSHINE FOR YOU!!!
And if you visit Crazy Horse, PLEASE take pictures! I so want to see that someday...
