When are your meetings in Kearney and where are they?  Is this person who had their surgery in Mexico a member of OH?   Thanks for your help.

Topic: Protein! Who Wants FREE Protein?!

I am having a product giveaway on my website.  Is it a shameless ploy to get visitors?  

HECK YEAH!  But who cares!  It's a chance for FREEBIES! 

Three lucky winners are surely going to hit it big!!  I am talking, wonderful protein jackpot! 

Before I hit the rules, here is what three lucky winners will receive:

A case of Labrada On The Go Ready to Drinks, AND a case of Rock'N Roll bars!  OH MY GARSH!  I am so jealous!   All products will be sent directly to the winners from the Labrada company.

"Did she say a CASE of BOTH?"  Yes, she did!

Here is all you have to do:

from Sunday, April 5th at 12:01 am UNTIL Sunday, April 12th, 12:01 pm, every person who makes a comment on my website to any post, or sends me an email will be entered for the drawing.  You don't have to go into elaborate details of your surgery or life if you wish not to... (for you shy folks) but on Monday, April 13th, I will hold the drawing for 3 lucky winners.  Yes, 3 LUCKY WINNERS!  http://recoveringfatty.com

Good luck.  Gosh I love giveaways.

Thank you all for the responses. 

Texasgirl66:  I did get a chance to talk to Dr. Anthone after this post about the ventilator and it looks like for right now I probably won't be on it.  But it all depends on how my oxygen sats do during surgery.  However, he did do a lot toward alleviating my fears about it.  He really is an awesome doctor - I'm very impressed with his calm, friendly, down-to-earth way of relating to me.  Thanks for the reassurance - and I will definitely make sure I'm up and walking as soon as possible!  I'm about 298 now going into this, so I hope to have as good success as you have!

Hey Carlie,  you are in such very capable hands with Gary Anthone.  He is very compassionate and professional, not to mention that the DS is his passion.  He performed my DS on March 24,2008.  To date I have lost 115lbs.  I was 301 going into it.  I work with him in surgery also.  He is the same person in or out of the operating room.  As for the ventilator I am sure he has a very good reason behind leaving you on it after surgery.  Just ask him why.  One thing I can't stress more is to get up and walk whenever you are able to after your surgery.  I was up within 12 hours and never felt better.  Just go with whatever he says...he knows his stuff!!  If you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask.

Topic: Support Group Meetings in Sidney NE
I'd like to get the word out that we have a support group meeting held every third Tuesday of the month in Sidney.  We meet from 5:30 - 6:30 in the Ray Cruise Conference Room in the Basement of Memorial Health Center. If you park on the north side of the hospital and go through the 'rehab' doors, just follow the hallway till you come to that room.  This meeting is for all of those who have had WLS surgery or are thinking of having it.  For more information call me at 308-250-4635.
