Starting again with many emotions.
Here I go again. Had the lapband, had complications it has been removed. I am now starting all over again. This time I will be having the gastric by-pass. Today I had my 1st of 6 months of PCP visits with a new doctor/hospital/program. I am looking to have my surgery sometime around March or April. I loved the board before and met so many wonderful people (some of which I am still in contact with). I am hoping to do the same this time around.

I hope everything goes well for you. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.

Hi Nancy, and yes I remember you. I believe that you and your husband came down for one of our Christmas get togethers. Good to hear from you. Sorry that you have had issues with your weight. I can totally relate for sure. I have my last Dr. appt this thursday and then my paperwork can be sent to insurance. I can't wait to get this going again. I am going to try to get back on here more. I wish you the best of luck with you starting again. I know we can do this..........:)
Hi Cher,
think we were on about the same time, wit Scott, Marilyn and others. I have a support group in Sevierville now but do not get on here very often. I did not have the same problems as you but have had a little over 30 pounds weight gain in the last 1 1/2 years (after losing 91), partially due to some medical problems and having to go on prednisone but also because I let life get in my way and stopped exercising. I am restarting my life tomorrow as I have signed up for an exercise class at the local community center. I am apparently one of those people who have structure in their life, :).
Good luck on your upcoming surgery and I am sure you will be successful. Love, Nancy
