Topic: RE: Any ND's on here?
Brenda-
Yes, I live in Fargo, for now! Havent lived here all my life Depending on where you are on your journey, do what the drs and nuts say. They know best of all. Everyone on these boards has great opinions to offer, but it isnt always suitable for everyone. Start exercising. I didnt but am joinig a club next week. My butt is kinda jiggly!! LOL Take care- Sue

Hi Sue ~ Thanks for your reply, & CONGRATULATIONS! Sounds like you're doing awesome! Any tips you might have for me would be greatly appreciated. Are you from the Fargo area? I've only been over that way a few times. Again, congrats on you weight loss, & thank you.

Hi Doug ~ Thanks for your reply. How are you doing? I haven't been approved for surgery yet, but I really hope I will be w/in the next month or so. I hope the trouble you were experiencing has subsided. Here's hoping you have a trouble free week!

Hi Brenda- I dont usually check out this board cause there isnt much activity. I had my surgery with Dr Howell in Fargo. He is wonderful! I have lost 95 out of the 100 I wanted to loose. I am considered a lightweight. But its all been good and I have absolutely no regrets. Good luck on your journey. Sue
Topic: RE: Any ND's on here?
Hi,
I just found this forum today. I'm from Pelican Rapids, MN and I work in Fargo, ND. I had my RNY surgery on Jan 22, 2007 at Meritcare in Fargo. Before surgery I weighed 320 lbs. I am 269 as of this morning. Everything went well but I am experiencing trouble with a stricture at the anastomosis. I would like to hear from anyone who may also be experiencing this type of complication.

Hey Brenda,
Yea we are the quiet bunch (ya der ya know)
I wish we could have a support group or maybe you know of one where we could meet from time to time, as I do talk much faster than I can type, or maybe we can start one.
