Questions?

1. What do you do about the frothy stuff that builds up in your esophogus (sp)? I hate that stuff it seems like every morning i have it and sometimes during the day.... 2. Has anyone went to the Evelyn Frye Center aftercare program? our support group is going to the one on August 16th... and I was wondering what happens and what i can expect? Feeling pretty good... still getting tired... and having some problems with food. but hanging in there... I weighed myself and I am down 48lbs... i now weigh 269lbs.. woohoo... Well, talk to you soon... hope you guys have some suggestions... thanks Robin

Hey Robin, WOW you are doing so good with your wl congrats on your loss and i am still waiting on my surgery,it will happen. Gods Blessing to you Eva

Hiya Robin! I only have the frothing problem when food gets stuck. They say drinking hot liquids helps, like coffee or tea. I had my psych eval at the Eveyln Frye Center but havent been back there since then. What support group are you doing? When/where are the meetings? I need to get involved in one. I'm so jealous of your weight loss. I'm two months post and stuck for the last month at 39 lbs. My first plateau apparently. You're doing fantastic!!! Keep up the great work! God bless! Melanie

Answer to your question about the Evelyn Frye support meetings... It is held the 3rd monday of every month... which will be August 16th... At 5:30 pm in the Towers... It is included in your aftercare with bypass surgery... It would be great to meet you Melanie... Thanks for the congrats... I am having the frothing problems mainly in the morning ... its like i have a bunch of phlem... yuck.... Keep on trying... have you started a regular exercise program? I walk and I am trying to get back in at the YMCA... I love to swim.... God bless... take care Robin...

Hi Robin, WOW 48 #'s that is fantastic. Congrads to you. Keep up the great work. Hugs to you with Kathy

I have not been to the Evelyn Frye support group, but I think I will try it the next time it rolls around. I am definitely going to go to the CMC one next Tuesday (already attended one before my surgery). Congrats on your weight loss - you are doing a terrific job!!! Jules

Robin, congratulations on your loss. I go to the doctor for my 6 week checkup on Wednesday so I'll let all of you know what my loss is by then. I know it's going to be over 30 lbs. Which I think is great, I'm just not too sure how much over the 30 it will be. How many weeks post-op are you? I don't get that frothy stuff you're talking about. So I'm not too sure what to tell you. Anne

Thats good Anne...just keep on keeping on... I actually found out i had something stuck in my pouch and thats why i was having the problems... I have done real good today...no problems.... I am feeling alot better... I will be 7 weeks on the 11th... Remember to chew chew chew!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dont want that stuff getting stuck in your pouch...LOL Have a great day... Talk to you soon... Robin
