To my Angel..Beth Thompson......

I just wanted to check in with you and see if you got my email with my phone #'s? If not please email me at [email protected] and I will email them to you. I also wanted to say that I have finally had the opportunity to read your profile....WOW! You are truely an inspiration. All the the negative things I've read and heard about lapbands are now out of my mind. I'm seriously thinking about the lap band now. I've been lurking on the lap band board and it sounds like it may be better for me. The only thing I'm concerned about is I'm a carb addict. And I'm afraid the lap band won't help with that. Like the RNY will make you dump if too much carbs. Any suggestions there? I want to make this work. And I also want the best one for me. Thanks~Jess~

Hi Jess, The lap band is a wonderful procedure to have. Once you feel that full feeling after eating, it makes it a lot easier to eat small amounts. also if you are a sweet eater, there are a lot of wonderful recipes made with splenda that are to die for. Beth is a wonderful gal. I wish I had half of her energy. She is a wonderful asset to the support group in North Platte. Mona

I'm hoping everything is alright with you Beth! Haven't seen you post in a while! ~Take Care~Jess

Jess, sorry i have had company from Wis for over a week now, they will leave on wed or thurs, then i go pick up my daughter and grandson in denver thursday and stay over in Julesburg as she has a court date from a bad auto acciden several years ago. she is t rying to get the driver to pay all bills. Thats at 9 a.m then i need to be back here by 1 as one of my Red Hat Sister's mother died and we go in full attire and sit together. I need to run now as i started bowling after 35 years... its a senior league and i feel im the *****iest one there By the way Mona is a wonderful lady too and she will also help you in any way she can with starting a group. We both love our bands and have had very good success with them. There are problems with anything but one just has to work them out. I didnt like sweets that much before WLS and now i love deserts and ice cream... Hugs, your Beth, and i will try to call you when i get home tonight..honey, i havent forgot you. its just been crazier than usual around here
