Recruiting NYer's

Hello,

I am Lisa and I have posted in an effort to bring some more action to the NY board.

I am "Wake Up NY". I have been on vacation this week and have been able to post in the morning. I would like to continue this and make it a daily thread if that is ok with everyone.

Just a thread where we can share, compare and say hello to our neighbors!

Also maybe become aware of what is happening in our areas. Maryellen and Jamie do keep us posted and do a great job with info.

If anyone is objective let me know and if anyone is interested let me know that too!

Thanks,

Lisa

I think this is an awesome idea Lisa!:) I come here to check out "new" threads..but usually there aren't any! I am glad to see people trying to get things "livened" up a bit! I check in regularly..I don't have alot in common with anyone yet..as I am pre-op..hopefully that will change this Fall!:)

Thanks again for the new idea..I hope it works!:)

Kim

Kimmeroo,

Welcome!

Keep popping in!
Like I said I will try to post everyday (or night) and see if we can get a regular following. It is fun to see familiar faces after awhile!

Glad to see you on the site pre-op. I started on here almost 1 yr before my WLS too! It is very informative and nice to get food ideas and what to expect.

I love my RNY and would do it all over again! I have not had one bit of trouble!

Thanks for checking in!

Lisa

Hi Lisa and Kim

I am also pre-op...surgery date scheduled 6/3/10. I like being able to see what people, closer geographically, are doing.

Hope to keep coming by and checking in with everyone.

Lissa

btw Kim, what do you think of Dr. Fitzer?

Welcome,

I am so glad you have stopped by!!
I hope this takes off and more people pop on over. I am pretty excited. I will see if I can bring something fun and interesting to the boards too!

I had thought about starting a group awhile back. Maybe I will think about it again.

Well, don't forget to come on back!

Great idea!
I check the NY boards to see if there are people in my area with my surgeons office. I am less than a month pre op and always researching.
Thanks for starting this!
