Hey - well, you're just a beautiful lady, you look like you are fit and active, and that will definitely help - So, walk as much as possible now AND as soon as they say it is okay postop to be up and about, just walk walk walk.  No matter how sore you are, walking and moving will get your blood flowing and help you heal faster than you can imagine.  That is my "tip of the day." Congrats on your upcoming surgery, and let us know how you are doing.  As you can see, this board is a little slow these days, but hopefully with new surgeries and such, it will get up to speed.

Yes, our group meets the second Monday of each month.   We would love to have you join us.  We are trying to get our group built back up.  The more the merrier.

Hi Melissa,  I need to get started in a support group again.  I went to the meetings on the coast but I don't think they are meeting anymore that I know of.  Does the Hattiesburg group meet the second Mon each month?   I read your post to Dawn and I too have stopped taking my vitamins and have gained some weight.  I have gone to the gym 5 days a week  for almost a year and havent lost a pound.  I will start back on the vitamins and hopefully that will help. Thanks for the info! Cindy 

I like to do omelets.  I will use 2 eggs.  And I will put onions, tomato, cheese, and turkey sausage.  That taste so good to me.  With all the flavor from the other stuff you don't taste the egg so much.  LOL.   Melissa

But for now i will start on some vits...everything i take that liquid B-12 i have a horrible dumping episode! so i guess i need some shots!  thanks missy, DAWN~~
