Topic: Today is the day!
Finally get to meet with Dr. Pace today. Now I'm getting nervous. What if he turns me down. That would feel like getting a death sentence. I pray for good news today.
I have to check out of my hotel before my appointment so I won't be able to post how things went until I get home tonight. Hopefully after today we will have a few more on the site.
Topic: RE: Tracy
Hey Tracy,
That sounds awesome - you are so lucky to have the time to focus on yourself - I am finding it challenging now that I am back to work. We had a work luncheon meeting at a Mexican restaurant today and, while I only had three of them, my lunch was nachos covered in ground beef, cheese and guacamole! Don't even ask me about what happened this evening when I found out my favourite Chinese food restaurant that had been closed for renovations had reopened...
Actually, it wasn't too bad in the end. The great thing about Sleevie is that he doesn't let us really overeat. Otherwise, up-chuck time!
I find it is really important for me to religiously journal everything I eat, so when I make poor choices (like today), I still have the stats of exactly what the impact was - which I find very motivating to just do better the next day.
Love you, girlfriend - stay strong. :)

Topic: RE: Who has app. on Thurs.?
Hi guys,
LOL, yes, I will see you TOMORROW. ;)
I had my follow-up with the dietician today, who is the new one hired permanently for the bariatric program - her name is Rhoda Crawley and she is very nice and supportive. You will all have her guidance once you get close to your pre-op diet time.
Take care and sweet dreams,
Jenn

Hi Terri, I'm still feeling frustrated but you know how that feels.....I'll try Janice again on Friday but like most days I get the same results:( I'm going to wait till Oct and If nothing I"ll be starting the process of paying for my surgery in Mexico...I really need to have my life back before I get more depressed. I was excepted for Dr Christou in Montreal last year to do my surgery but his cost for me is 32,000 because I have Malignant Hypothermia which is an allergy to an agent in the anesthetic. So that sucks. Always something my dear. I'm not sure of the cost with someone with this allergy in Mexico but I sure hope its nothing or very little....the surgery there is 12,000 all inclusive with airfare and hotel so i guess I can look at it like a vacation...a very expensive vacation...lol...... Good luck on Thurday...I`ll be thinking of you....do u have to travel far to come here.

Hi Carrie: Haven't heard from you in a while. How have you been feeling?
It would be a good time to call Janice on Fri. after he is done with our
appointments Thurs. Then she might know more about what he is going
to do next. I will let you know tom. if I hear anything.

Tammy get off the edge of that cliff. It's dangerous! Just sitting on the edge of
your seat is fine...LOL Will let you know tom. as soon as I get home.
It will probably be after 6pm. We will probably have an early supper in town
before we come home. I am so nervous I won't be able to eat until after my
appointment...>LOL
