Thanks Yvonne!!  It is going good.  Hard work but it is just what I needed.  Hard breaking old habits but I am determined to win.  Thanks again.  Good hearing from you.

Molly I couldn't be more happy for you.  I think this is exactly what you need.  If anyone deserves an "A" for effort you certainly do!  I can't wait to hear how it goes.

You are so welcome.  Someone helped me through this so it's not right for me not to help others.  Do let me know but go ahead and post it on the discussion board even if it's in the new members post so others will see it better!

 Oh my goodness, Yvonne, you are so sweet!  I'm blown away by your kindness and concern to me, a perfect stranger.  Thank you so much!   I have spoken with my Dr. and they suggested I go back on liquids for a week and call them back if it's not better by then.   I will keep you posted and thank you for your friendship, it means so much!

Hugs back atcha!

The best way to introduce myself is to let you read my story :)

Your cover on OH was wonderfully written.

Thank you,

Lori bless your heart.  Has your doctor scheduled an EGD or anything to look for a possible stricture??  You definitely need to tell your doctor that you haven't eaten in 4 days.  Don't feel like you are bothering the doctor because this could be something serious that needs to be fixed.  A stricture can be fixed easily.  I'm worried about you so please be agressive with the doc OK?  Welcome and so glad you're here.
Hugs, Y

 Hello Everyone,  My name is Lori and I'm new to the group.  I had WLS on 8/15/11 and have been doing great until about a week ago.  I have had tummy troubles (pressure and a lil upset/ache constantly, unless it's totally empty) for the past 8 days.  I have followed my Dr.'s orders perfectly, no eating of anything not recommended or too much.  I'm a bit worried as she mentioned a potential stricture, or possibly just something irritated my stomach.  I haven't eaten at all now for 4 days, and am having trouble getting my protein down.  Has anyone experienced this?

At any rate, I want to thank our leader for being such an inspiration and source of encouragement.  It is much appreciated!

Topic: Welcome to so many new members!!
I have explained that lately I have been involved in so much that I have been away from the group.  I'm going to do my best to be here for our old and new members.  For the ones that don't know it, OH gave me a cover.  The story is here and there's a link to join the group and we've had several new members.

Here's the story:

So again, welcome new members and please don't be afraid to post.  We are all super nice and we offer unconditional love and understanding so you are in a safe place.

Hugs, Y
