 theres some new thing here but not worth talking about  I am so far off the diet that it isnt funny   I have went back to stage one  will will learn about this in the nut class  and then on to stage 2 and then  stage three and maybe by then it will be time for another fill....  I get discouraged very easily now.   
  my husband still doesnt have the car running  it has been since Dec   now al it needs is for the brakes to be bled and for reason he has stalled at this.
  Now I am just raving.... sorry  but I have found I have a new diab condition that I dont know alot about and web md doesnt give alot of info on it    and dont go back to the do****il 2 weeks from now.

Topic: An Update
I have been very busy lately and have not posted in a while so here is my update and I would love it if you would all post one on here too.

My husband and I went on a 3 day trip for our 15 yr anniversary and had a wonderful time. The Seneca area and the Cass Railroad were very beautiful. The cabin we stayed in was lovely and the Jacuzzi was huge.lol

My surgery date is September 24th that is 10 days from today.
I have a NUT appointment on Wednesday this week. I will learn about the pre-op diet and post-op life. I will get registered for some test = EKG, us of GB, and lab work that I know of.
Friday I have the appointment with my surgeon Dr. Nease. I will get my surgery time and be able to ask any questions I have.

School is in full swing and I like the classes and teachers I have. I should really be doing homework right now so I will be going. I am looking forward to reading your updates so please post them.

First fill 11/4/08 3cc's  Second fill 12/19/08 2cc's
Third appt 1/27/09 rescheduled
Third fill 3/24/09 1 cc= Total 6cc's

Hi everyone!

The Beckley WLS Support Group meeting will be held on Monday, September 15, from 7:00-9:00pm at Raleigh General Hospital on Harper Road, Beckley. Guests are welcome and everyone is encouraged to attend! We will meet in room "B" in the new Education Center (located on the Kroger-side of the hospital towards the rear of the lot). You will see a wheelchair ramp and some steps leading to a glass door. There is parking to the rear of the building, as well as in the main parking lot.

This month:  Review of plastic surgery procedures.  Also, regular discussion about weight-loss surgery, food, and anything important to you! Recipes and informational handouts about cravings and nourishment of your entire body will be available. We will also discuss future guest speakers and meeting topics. If you have ideas or requests for future meetings, please feel free to share them!

Clothing Exchanges: You are welcome to bring any clothes that no longer fit you to give to others that might be able to use them. You do not have to bring clothing to take clothing, and bringing clothing is not required.

Restaurant cards for Dr. Shin and Dr. Stickler's patients (as well as some other area doctors) will be available for anyone who needs one. If you need a card for a specific doctor, please email me with your doctor's name, address and telephone number.

You can view our monthly calendar by visiting our support group website at http://www.geocities.com/beckleywlssg/ 2008 meeting dates are also listed below.

Looking forward to seeing you Monday!

Hi Lisa,

I am far in Charles Town, WV.  But I also feel the same we definitely need support in my area too. I moved from MD and I am really missing my support group. 

I hope you can come up with a support group in your area and I hope I can do the same over here.  I just wanted to wish you luck!

You can count on me for support on line anytime or by phone. Contact me anytime. I will pm you my number.

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.
Those that mind don't matter, and those that matter don't mind.

Hi Vonda,

How are you doing today?  Where do you go to exercise?
I have been exercising at home. I get on my treadmill I mow a .33 acre lawn, I get in the trampoline with my children and just recently i started to do some toning exercises.  I just workout here at home since I have 3 young children at home.

I have been meaning to email you to see if we can round out a few people in our surrounding area for a support group 1 time a month in my home in Charles Town.  My husband just recently had RNY surgery on Aug 19th and it would be great that we could begin doing a support group.

There is nothing out here.   Tell me if would you be interested and if you know of anyone else that would like to come. I met a neighbor that had RNY last year and she is willing to come also. I was thinking maybe a friday evening or Saturday durign the day or evening.

Let me know what you think?

Take care and keep in touch!

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.
Those that mind don't matter, and those that matter don't mind.

Are you out here?  Please let me know... I would like to take a stand and get us together and start a workout session for the people that will...

You don't have to be on the loser bence... you can be someone that is considering the surgery or just someone that wants to workout with some heavy hitters... WELL I am that someone... Maybe you want some encouragement... Well it's getting ready to get cold and if your like some of us when it starts getting cold... we start hibernating... IT won't be me this YEAR... I have lost 115 pounds in 6 months and I workout EVERYDAY... 7 days a WEEK and I love it... I want to help someone...

I was always told that it is a blessing to be a blessing and if you need that extra PUSH.. COME ON I will PUSH with you... PRAY UNTIL SOMETHING HAPPENS... and I will EXCERSISE with you...

I am so serious...

Be blessed and I hope to hear from someone...
