Topic: Just dropping in..)
Hi JoJo,

Wanted to let you know, I won't be attending the conference.  Though, I wish I could.

Still have problems here we are dealing with and haven't been home much.


I will try and stay in touch.

Peace
Mary

I am on my way.  What a ride it has been.

Topic: Sorry
Hi,

I didn't make it to the chat last night.  Went to visit my dad who just got out of the hospital and because of the blizzard did not make it home in time.

I am really sorry..  Next time I will be there.

Topic: Hi
To introduce myself, here's a little about me:
I am 57 years old. I live in the Youngstown, Ohio area.  I have a beautiful wife. We will celebrate 33 years of marriage next month.  I have three grown children.

I had RNY laprascopically on 9/21/09 at the Cleveland Clinic.

I used to weigh more than 500 pounds.  By the day of my surgery I weighed 324 pounds.  A week ago I weighed 260 pounds.

I joined OH about a month before surgery and have found the support here great.

Since the local WLS support group here in town is only open to patients of that hospital.. I need to drive about a half hour to the next nearest group.   Don't know when your group meets, but even if I can't make it, I would love to share our experiences on this journey online as well.

Thank you for allowing me to become a member.

Topic: RE: WEEKLY OR BI WEEKLY ONLINE SUPPORT GROUP
Hi there, Please let me know what nights would work for you and I will set up a weekly online chat. It will have to start in a couple weeks though. Tues or Thurs would work better for me so please let me know if that works and what time.

Thanks and look forward to hearing back from you.
