Hello?

Where is everyone and how are you doing?

Hello, where is everyone .....is right...... I come to this site daily and no one ever has a post..... I had my WLS in July 2006 and have lost of total of 97 pounds and am doing great...... some one out there in Dakota land  must read this.. come on lets get this ND site moving... Peggy Sue/Fargo

Congratulations!!! So how are you feeling now?

Hey, thanks for the  intrest..... Inever had a problem with anything, just when i looked into my closet at about a size 12, I just sat down and cried...then I visited some ofthe thrift stores in Fargo,  and wow.... there I was.... now I wear a 4/6 down from a 22/24 so life is good. I can't eat meat, but I get lots of protein...drink lots of water... and am fine.... how about you? Peggysue

Well I was in a 30/32 at my highest weight and I am down to a 16 and 14 in some things. I don't see it in the mirror yet but I am sure I will. I am feeling better I had a stricture and an ulcer repaired in september and I have been really weak and tired. I was dehydrated and couldn't eat hardly anything for 2-3 weeks but I am able to eat pretty good and drink a lot better now. Just been EXTREAMLY cold lately lol.

Hey love, I just looked at your ticker and you are on your way!   As for the cld.. Iwore thoes "spanks" from the Oprah show last year for warmth.... under my jeans.. and I cook for a child care.... I was always cold... and in North Dakota, what do we have but maybe ....1 warm month.....ha... I have already gotten out my winter coat and worn it..... Hows the weather been in Minot?     So what are you eating these days.... I have to make myself eat... as I don't have an appetite. talk to you soon.. Peggy sue

Yeah, Thanks! I just bought a pair of thermal underwear...LOVE EM! hehe keeps me toasty warm. I don't think I have ever heard of "spanks" I'll have to check it out. Weathers been pretty good up here, a little chilly and today was really windy. I've had my winter coat out a while too. The heat in my house has been on since we moved practically in August lol.     I have to make myself eat too, I don't get hungry and forget a lot to eat and/or drink fluids. It's a blessing my husband had the surgery a year before me, he is a good coach. I have been eating a lot of Peanut butter and cashews. Chicken is good, turkey...I LOVE fruit and salad! mmmm. I don't have much variety. I can eat like a cup of special k and 1/4 cup of milk. Tonight I just got done eating some chicken corn chowder (My favorite pre surgery), and it is not sitting well...giving me cramping and ugh...But I am sure it will pass. I will have to just wait a while I spose. I love juice too, the No Sugar Added kind I'm addicted to water and skim milk (only out of the carton). Can'th think of much else right now.

Hey Lov,  wow you can eat alot....so many different things... I am quite content just to be a vegetarian... I used to love beef... but it just doesn't sit well so Ive learned to eat PVP protein meat and tofu... and lots of peanut butter.We were told not to eat lettuce and it takes up too much space in the tummyand no nutrional  vslue in it...I drink lots of  hot tea.. can;t handle cold water... I see by your date that I had mine almost to the day 1 year earlier ... July 20,2006,,,,,well talk to you soon... Peggysue

i'm here peggysue, sitting right next to you at work

I'm not much further away from you guys, Jeanne and PeggySue. Hey, Love, you are from Minot. Does someone do this surgery in Minot? I thought the closest place was Bismarck if you lived in Minot. Is that not the case? Kathi
