You're in my prayers SandraJean.  Let us know what you find out.  I have a friend with Hep C and Cirosis and I know what a problem it can be.  Take good care of yourself.

Hi everyone,

I admit its been a while since I've been posting on a regular bases, I'm going to try and get better at updating everyone.

I had my band replaces in January after 4 1/2 years.  I'm happy with my decision to replace it not not have it removed. I'm going to sharing my story at the next meeting and we'll be talking about lap band care and maintance. As well as Im sending an email to everyone on the email list already to bring their favorite recipes or share their favorite lap band food idea

Mark your calenders: June 13th at 10am Mcminnville Hospital in the Cafeteria, 

See you then.

I HEARD UNJURY IS PRETTY GOOD HIGH PROTEIN SHAKE, I SAW THIS NEW ONE CALLED CLICK, BUT ITS ALOT MONEY, COST FROM 22. 95 TO ABOUT 25.00  FOR 16 OZ CONTAINER,

Who would have thought?  Today was the annual "take a hike" day at the University of Oregon.  I have done this fitness walk (a bit more than a mile) for the last several years.  In the last few years, they have added a fun run to the festivities.  Today, as I was leaving the walk to return to my office, I saw the runners coming in.  There were two gals from our Eugene/Springfield group who were running the race!!  I was so proud, you would have thought it was me who was running.

Congratulations to Kathy and Molly for improving their fitness level to participate in a RUN!  You GO girls!  I'm so proud of you both.

Best way to find out is to give his office a call.
