Hello Everyone!

Sorry I have been away for so long. I am just so darn busy here at work anymore (hey it makes the day go by faster and by the time I get home I don't even want to look at the computer if ya know what I mean. I hope everyone here is doing well and I see we have lots of new names and faces which is so wonderful. I have to say today turned out to be pretty nice outside since the heavy rain yesterday. Nothing new has happened except that I am now fitting into a size 4 pants (hurray!!!!!!!) I was a 22/24 before I had the surgery as most of you remember. WOW what a difference. I am not trying to lose anymore weight I am at 135lbs and that is where I want to be. I have to say I would do this surgery (RNY LAP) over again in a heart beat. To all of the pre-ops and all of the post-ops I wish you all the best on your journey and if there is anything I can help you with please just away and I will get to you ASAP. Love you all! I miss being here so much!!!!!!! Evelyn 247/135/past goal

Thanks, Evelyn and welcome back! I have 34 days until my surgery. Where is Harrison? Becky Jean

Welll Harrison is in Westchester NY and I live one town before Rye( where Playland is! The Amusement Park) So where is Lockport located. Have a sgreat day ! Evelyn 247/135/past goal

I am assuming that Westchester is downstate, sorry, I never head of it! I promise I'll look it up on mapquest. Lockport forms a triangle with Niagara Falls and Buffalo. Lots of famous people lived here and invented important stuff here! The fire hydrant was invented here. The radiator was invented here (Harrison Radiator). Have you ever heard of the Sutherland sisters? Becky Jean

It is so nice to see you again Evelyn! I have missed seeing you posting. I always would look for you and Alice when I first found this board. You both gave me so much hope and encouragement! I'm glad to hear you are doing so well! It gives me lots of hope!

I'm doing very well.....I can't get over how much energy I have had since around a week out. I am doing my walking every day and the biggest problem I have is getting the 3 meals a day in...I can handle the protein shakes without a problem but trying to drink 2 of those a day AND eat 3 meals a day is tough!
