Topic: Hello
Hi everyone,
My name is Annette. I had RNY in 2008. I have lost over 120 lbs. total but am 20lbs. from goal.
I just can't seem to get back on track. The carbs are calling and I am doing everything I can to stay away. I have started logging my food intake again and....suprise I am getting more calories than I thought. Any good recipes out there for protein based foods? NO CHICKEN please....if I eat one more piece of chicken I'm going to cough up some feathers.

I believe you can just show up. I left my name and e-mail and phone number at the New Balance Store in Matthews Township shopping center. But I don't believe you have to. I'll be there Saturday, so I'm betting you can give the New Balance folks your info then. That way you get on the e-mail list.

Hi Cheryl - your weight loss is fabulous, by the way!
I would love to join in on the Saturday morning walks. Do I just show up or is there something else I need to do to join? Thanks!

Just in case anyone is interested, I did walk with the New Balance WLS walking group on Saturday for my first time. It was chilly, but quite beautiful down on the 4 mile creek greenway. We meet at 7:45 at the Starbucks at Piper Glen, 6432 Rea Road. We went 3 miles, but as I understand some folks go more, some less, groups break off into fast and slow.
So if you're interested, come out on a Saturday morning. Love to meet you.

Hi, Thanks for starting this board. I've been looking for something that is specific to Charlotte. We have a great city, and it would be great to get to know other local WLS patients better.
Anyway, I had RNY on December 15, 2010. My surgeon was Donald Balder with Southeast Bariatrics. I'm doing great. I've been going to support group meetings, for SE Bariatrics and I just tried the Presbryterian Hospital group meeting last month. Like both, for different reasons. Let me know about you, all 3 of you.... so funny when a group is just starting out.
Also, this Saturday I'm joining up with a group of WLS patients for a walk on the southern greenway (McAlpine, McMullen, 4-mile Creek). Its a group that is supported by the New Balance store in Matthews. Anyway, it's my first time, and I don't know anybody there. I heard about it at my Presb. support group meeting.
Nice to meet ya,
Cheryl
