Great!
I have sent him a response also. I will get all of you on an email list and then we can do some brainstorming together. I am shooting for July as a start month.
I will be in CA while you are having surgery. My stepdaughter is getting married that Saturday. I will be thinking about you.

Topic: RE: Does anyone want a Durham group?
I was very discouraged to find that none of the folks who signed up answered my email. Add me to the list and I'll send you the other 5 emails when I get home tonight. Did you see the post from the gentelman from Chapel Hill? He might also be interested.
Thanks for continuing with this! I'm psyched about it. My surgery is June 3rd - next Friday so I'd miss anything scheduled in the next two weeks.

Topic: Steamy Tuesday Roll Call
I was jarred out of bed by the stupid house alarm beeping and fell on my face. Hubby keeps setting it and it is driving me nuts. We have an alarm built in with our dog. So I am grumpy and sore today.
Sorry. Anyway, not a lot planned. Going to go to a new church tonight and see how I like it. It's hard finding churches that fit all our "requirements" lol.
What is on your agenda?

Topic: RE: Does anyone want a Durham group?
Are you and your friends still interested in a group? I have had another inquiry and I want to get the email list started so I can talk to you all. Let me know.
Topic: RE: RTP support groups
Hi,
Glad you asked. I am trying to get one started in the Durham area. I have had a few people ask. I am also wanting to get an idea of where we can meet and what time. I had a support group in PA for about three years. We recently moved back down to Durham. I am trying to get an email list of folks so I can talk to all of you about when and where you want to meet.

I'm drinking two meal replacement protein shakes per day and having a small low carb, high protein meal. This is what they've told me to do to reduce my liver size as well as lose weight.
I've decided to have my meal at lunch. I think it's healthier to eat during the day especially since my night time schedule is so different from night to night. Eating late at night isn't good for me, I know this from past experience. I guess we'll see how it goes.
Thanks for the well wishes. Same to you. :)

They did put me on the liver shrinking diet but only for 6 days. I think part of the reason it got all messed up was because of scheduling. When I met with the scheduler, I told her I either had to have the surgery within the next few weeks or I'd need to wait until late June or early August. She was accommodating and scheduled as soon as possible, which was 6 days later. That just didn't give me much time to prepare. I did the best that I could but there is only so much you can do in 6 days.
I wish you the best in finding a new surgeon.
