The bank I  work for knocks off 1000.00 bucks of my cost of medical if we both go get an assessment. I don't really like having to do it but 1000 bucks is incentive enough.  They will use the info to send us crap, I mean info on what we can do to be healthier.

I have already contacted them and they stopped having meetings. I was suppose to get email updates of reminders for the monthly meetings but they never came in. I suppose it is difficult to be a weight loss surgery patient here in the Alamo city everything is centered around eating out, and although obesity has declined some her there is still a lot of it in the city. perhaps I can find some eaters anon meetings. Thanks for your help though I appreciate it.

Vivian thanks for your reply I am already a member of that group but unfortunately they do not meet anymore.

Good Luck on getting a reduced rate on your insurance.  Despite the BS of my job best incentive I have to stay here is that my health insurance, lousy as it may be, is paid for.  Brother buys his own. Dayum!!

Good morning, 

Started early today, DH and I at appointment this morning at Quest to be weighted, measured and have cholesterol checked as part of health assessment for insurance.  My scales at home showed a slightly lower number this morning.

We will probably go eat breakfast after we are done than back to work and Sunday School class meeting tonight to complete my day.

Have a great day

Welcome Jeff.    I went to OH and here is what I've found for San Antonio ( sorry didn't have time to search all the list ).

Innova Hospital Support Groups (San Antonio, TX 78222) Group Leader: bmendozawithinnova 29 Members | Started on January 2, 2008

Sorry I don't have time to look through all the groups for Texas but here is the link to the list.    Your very wise to want to go to support group meetings.   I am a OH Support group leader but my group is in Fort Worth area.    Hope the list has some other choices of groups in the San Antonio area.   I know there is a need there for support.    I know of lots in Austin area.   Maybe you can find one at a nearby city.   If not...contact OH and see if you can become a support group leader....that's what I did.   Good luck to you and congrats on your successful weight loss.

 

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Hi Y'All I am a little over 2 years Rouxen y surgery and I have recently moved to San Antonio, Tx. I went to a support group but learned that there were no other bariatric patients going to it. I would really like to get into another group that meets regularly. If anyone knows of such a group please leave the address or name of the institution where it is being held. I have lost 105 pounds to date and I want to keep it that way. Thanks all wishing everyone great success.

The pic is Oregon after Ohio State got done with them last night.  They jinxed themselves in choosing the uniforms that they did according to an Sports Illustrated article that was linked to me by a friend. 

Work and contraption time are one and two for today.  DW is happy she is not being "farmed out" to the clinic she was yesterday.  The work was not bad just the being out her environment thing and the drive.

Keep smiling!  Remember, it makes people wonder what you're up to.
