Hi Patrece,  Went to a support/cooking class mtg. with my daughter yesterday.  Met alot of people that post and now can put  a face to the name.  Got alot of tips from them. - But my daughter(who had RNY last month) got sick.  Something didn't agree with her and she got sick most of the evening after leaving.  That is when I get nervous and think, " do I really want to do this?" but it then passes.  She and I walked the Rail/Trail today for an hour.  I see my surgeon on the 23.  Margie

Hey Margie! Sounds like a neat meeting to attend. I am very sorry to hear your daughter got ill. It is so very miserable when this happens. The hard part is, when you don't know what foods are going to hit you that way. Sometimes it can even be a food that has agreed with you previously since surgery. Some people struggle with this more than others. My daughter, who had rny before I did, had this reaction  quite a few times early on, where I only did once, other that a mild yuck feeling for about 20 minutes or so.
Good for you guys getting out and walking for an hour! Isn't it so pleasant to be able to walk outdoors and enjoy the company of another at the same time? My daughter and I walked together all the time when she was living closer to me. I kinda miss it.
We have a new state of the art YMCA in my area, and my health insurance will cover my membership to it, so I am going to go there sometime this week and tour it and join up. They have this kewl thing called a river walk. It is a water walking track! Can't wait to see and experience that!
By the way, we have a "share your recipes" topic here, and there we can even share cooking and food choice tips, hints and whatever. Please feel free to share anything you may have learned at the meeting with our group! I'd love to see some new ideas, and learn more for myself as well!
Thank you for being here Margie! Good luck at your appointment! Keep us posted on what happens at it!
Hugs!
