got a question
Hi Dawn We had Surgery about the same time, and I have gained back some weight. I carry a before surgery picture with me and often look at it because I never want to go back to that!! Recently I have gone back to the basics. Drink lots of water, NO sugar, take my vitimins, and write down every thing that goes in my mouth. The first year after surgery I was religious about writing down everything, since I have started doing it again I have lost 5 lbs in about a week. We sure need a good support group down on the coast, that would help too. Good Luck
Cindy
Thank you Cindy, i have a before pic on my frig that i look at all the time, i too don't want to go there again! I woke up this morning with a mission to get back to the basics so far i have had a protein shake for breakfast have drank 16 oz of water and I'm going to have some plain tuna for lunch and we will see from there! I used to write everything down too, i think i will start that again! yhea i agree that we need a good support group down here...i kinda stopped going when i was doing so well...i was stupid and thought it was a waste of my time...because i never thought this would happen to ME! Guess thats what i get for being so arrogant! I really need to go to the Dr, i haven't had any labs run in over 2 yrs....yicks ! i see you used Dr Dolan do you know if there is a wt loss surgeon at Kessler now? thanks again, dawn~~
I had labs done this past Wed. for the first time in about 2 yrs. There is a wt loss surgeon at Kessler but all they are doing are followups, no new surgeries. Dr Dolan is TDY now but, the way they were talking Wed, when he gets back he won't be seeing patients because he is going to retire. They have a wt loss nurse but only part time. She talked about getting a support group started, but I think she has mentioned it to several people and nothing gets done. The phone number to the surgical clinic has changed, if you need it let me know. cindy
