Topic: I Have My Date!
Just wanted to let you know I start my full liquid on Wed 8/27 and my RNY is on 9/10/08.  I also think it would be nice to have a support group close by, I am driving from Parkersburg to have my surgery in Charleston. I am anxious and nervous, but also excited and very ready for this change. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers.

 Hi Crystal
  I use or buy both  I use the instant when in a hurry but if I have time I just use the quick cooking   they are a *****eaper   the instant is all premeasured  that makes it easier when first starting out.... and no waste......
  I buy the flavored in the instant also  for a change
 if this helps you...

Hello West Virginians .... there is a good possibility that I will be assigned to a project in Charleston for about 6 months.  I'm curious if there are any regularly scheduled support groups in the Charleston area?  I had VSG (in Dallas, TX) on 7/9 and would like to attend some support groups (organized or un-organized) while on my project site.

Thanks for any information you can offer!!  I'm looking forward to visiting West Virginia ... I've never been there before!

Dear Josie,

Glad to hear that the dr is willing to do your surgery.  Stay focus on the prize!! You will lose your required weight.  Are they planning something like Optifast? 

You will do great honey and we are here for you for support. I will definitely continue to pray for you.

Hugs,

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.

Hey girly! That's great he is going to do the surgery! And don't you worry, you WILL lose the required weight!  It's very hard work, but just think of how great the reward is going to be!  And 11 pounds!? Wow!  It's a great start!!
