I think I know the place. People are funny. We fell in love with it too about 5 years ago. I lost my job after the surgery (BIG STORY) and took the summer off (paid of course) and this town kept coming up. So with my new self esteem and family in tow, we headed off to Silverton. It is amazing! We were SOO meant to live here. Sometimes I have to pinch myself!
I went in yesterday for my 3rd fill and I got a lecture!! Well deserved but I really need to be taking in more protein. Which I knew, just didnt. Bad, Bad Kris! So, I am hoping that with this fill it will help and I will try to add more protien into my diet.
What have you been doing, anything new to spark the new weightloss?

A funny story in Silverton. I have several tattos and was chatting with the waitress about our common bond. We both had tattoes...she could have been my daughter.......so on our way out, she says to one of her coworkers...." See Mari, it isn't too late to get a tattoo done. That older woman just had one done" Cracked me up, as I hadn't until that time considered myself old. Definitely caught me off guard.
I believe there is a support group meeting in Salem, which isn't too far from Salem. Perhaps you should check it out!
Best of luck to you too!
Thanks!
I wish you the very best!

Don't know if you are interested, but there is a support group meeting at Market of Choice on Thursday. We have been having pretty good attendance. Might want to check it out if your schedule permits.
Take care!
I dont know, how do you possibly thank someone for something as extraordinary as what they did? Words probably don't even come close, and I can't think of anything that can be bought that can be compared to this person's BELIEF in you, confidence in you, support like that is definitely rare... Thats why I was thinking of some kind of personalized card or framed scrapbook-like pics?

I have been suffering from depression the last few months, but things are getting better now. I was just too isolated at home (being a housewife is boring, hehe) so I got a job at Starbucks part time, and that is helping, along with medication.

Shortly after I set my gastric bypass surgery date I had a family friend/benefactor offer to finance half of the cost of surgery since my insurance would not cover the procedure. I was able to obtain other loans for the other half of the cost of the surgery. My friend graciously allowed me to repay them AFTER the other loan(s) were paid off and with no interest. The anniversary of the surgery date is coming up and I am planning on making the final loan payment to my friend around the same time.
This person really cares about me and my health and what they did was out of the ordinary for the kind of friend they are to me. So I am wanting to do something extraordinary for them and your ideas would be very much appreciated. My question is this... I would like to do something really nice for my friend as a way of acknowledging their kind generosity towards me and I would like some suggestions or ideas from anyone reading this.
Thanks!
