I found and added you!

Hello Beth, Dr. Houston is my surgeon too. Ss happy
your already down 30 pounds. Everyone on this board is great, even Pam Davis posts here sometimes. No
question is to stupid and everyone loves to answer.
WELCOME!!!! I have my surgery in 7 days.

Good Morning and welcome!   My other half has already posted - I'll let you figure out which one it is!  We have a great suport system here.  We try to get together about twice a month for a dinner and a lunch.  At these GREAT events we usually swap clothes.  THose we have shrunk out of we pass on to others - some have been known to ask for the clothes off your back - ok, that's me - but I don't do that often.  The next event will be lunch bunch on the second Saturday of the month, so that should be the 13th of June - watch the board for notification.  I may have some clothes for you - if they don't fit now, they will fit later!!   WELCOME

Hello Beth,

You have found a great bunch of losers here on the TN board..........lol
You are doing great and keep up the good work. Like Beth mentioned there are two groups that meet each month, she told you about the Lunch Bunch. The other is the Dinner Club and it meets on the last Saturday of the month, so the next one will be 06/27 it is going to be a Cheddar's in Smyrna @ 6:00, I hope that you can make one of both of these get togethers. Again jus****ch the board for all the details for both. Hope to see you post often.

 Hey... I'm new here too! I'm having my surgery on June 1st... in a week! I'm having it done in Alabama, that's where my family lives and they wanted me to be there when I had it. But, I live in Nashville! I'm excited to become part of the group of losers!!! ;)

Welcome Missy B, congrats on your surgery, it's almost here. You will have to keep us posted on how things went from AL. Now when you get back to TN, you must come join one or both of our get togethers that we have twice a month. One is the Lunch Bunch that is the 2nd Saturday of the month @ 1:00 and the other  is the Dinner Club that is the last Saturday of the month @  6:00.

Welcome, y'all!

Thanks for all the support you guys!

Missy B, welcome from a fellow Twilight fanatic!  :)

 Hey!

Thanks for the welcome! :) I had my last appt with the doctor before my surgery on Wednesday, and I'm getting really excited! They had originally told me that I didn't have to do a liquid pre-op diet, but then he told me on Wednesday that I should do it until my surgery... so I'm on day 2 and it's not too bad so far! I weighed myself yesterday morning and then again this morning and I'm sure it's mostly water... but I lost 7 pounds since yesterday, haha. I don't really see how that's possible, even with it mainly being water. Maybe I was retaining water yesterday? Who knows... I'm not counting it yet because I don't know if it will stay that way. Seems too crazy to me! But doing the liquid diet is making all of this more real for me... and only a few more days! ahh! Can't wait! :)
