down 40 lbs

I'm down 40 lbs as of this morning. It's been 6 weeks since surgery. I will never regret having the surgery. It's been hard. I don't miss any food. I just miss just going to the kitchen or out to dinner and ordering anything. Now it takes me a while to find something I can eat. I'm looking into joining Curves, so hopefully I'll lose easier. Take care Wendy

Wow Wendy! That's great! Lori, Susann, Britt and I look forward to you joining our little group. We're all still pre-op and working on insurance approval. I believe Britt has been approved and has a date. I'm really happy for you. Lori and I joined Curves. I'm having some problems getting into some of the machines but hope once I'm on the "Losing Side" that will change. Hope to see you soon.

Congrats Wendy You are doing great. Hope to see you on the losing side soon. I have a date on 10/7, but no insurance approval yet. Still waiting Hope to see you at the Trident support group on Saturday morning. Susann

Ms Susann ... Could you please give me some information on the Trident support group ... Is it at Trident Hopital on 78? Is there one at Summerville Medical Center? What days & times are the meetings & how does one join? Thanks ... Dawn

Dawn. The Trident support group meets at Trident Hospital on 78 the 3rd Saturday of every month @ 10:00. Anyone can join and it is a very informal type meeting. I say all of this and this past Saturday was my first meeting, but I loved it. I haven't been to the MUSC support group yet, but hope to go next month and check it out. Susann

THANK YOU MS SUSANN ... I NEED TO CALL SUMMERVILLE MEDICAL & SEE IF THEY HAVE ONE AS WELL! UNLESS YOU ALREADY KNOW, WILL LET YOU KNOW WHAT I FIND OUT. DAWN

Hey Wendy, Good Job on losing 40 pounds. I have my surgery coming up on 9/12 and got my Tricare approval last week. I started working out yesterday, and boy can I feel it. Please come out and join us. I know that we are going to the MUSC group tomorrow night and some of the ladies are going to the Trident group on Saturday. Cant wait to meet ya. Britt
