Hard to believe that my 9th anniversary did arrive and I completely forgot!  Yet, I just wrote you mere days beforehand about it.  It trips me out to think that it's so easy to forget such an important anniversary.  I knew almost to the second it felt when my first anniversary was approaching and each year it has lessened.  Surprising.  I find myself now more stuck on the concept that a year from now will be the 10th anniversary.  A full decade of this tool and revised lifestyle.  I know all that sounds corny to admit but you are the folks that would understand.  It's hard to believe it's possible to miss the anniversary of such a life-changing event while at a the same it's equally suprising that it's been so long since it happened.  I'm forgetting that former self due to time and I'm not sure that's a good thing or not.  hmmmm

Greetings East Bay Bariatric,

Hard to believe that (1) in mere days I will be celebrating my 9th anniversary as a post-op WLS person (March 6) and (2) this month celebrates the 9th anniversary of the founding of East Bay Bariatric.  Has it really almost been a decade?

Many times over the years I have forgotten it was my WLS anniversary.  Who knew that was possible. 

If you can, please try super hard to attend our March 20 meeting to celebrate together on our group surviving 9 years.  So many groups have come and gone during that time, but we're still here...and here for each other.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
