ProudGrammy

phew , i'm glad i am not alone kathy

@FluffyChix Of course i've been good silly head i've been having trouble receiving new emails - thanx for conformation kathy

test

Hi Ken, I think it is time for me to confirm a few things. Both with you and Spectrum (TWC). The Email generated by the server appears to be "no-reply@bariatricpal.com" without the quotes and it is addressed to "Proud_Grammy@twcny.rr.com" again, without the quotes? I got into her email with the web interface and I did not see much except some old emails from forever ago. I also turned off all of the spam and junk mail filters I could find. I sat here today for a few hours looking for any kind of inbound email and there was nothing that showed up on the webmail interface. She did get a few emails on her other email account which should be about right. since we had to move her forum email traffic to "Proud_Grammy@twcny.rr.com", the traffic on her other account dropped right off. If you can confirm for me that both email addresses agree with your server logs, then I'll go back at Spectrum/TWC about Email filters that I may not be aware of. Happy New Years and thanks for the help. Tom (DH) :-|

not receiving new email from you - still problem kathy

@Ken C. i sent @Alex Brecher PM by mistake hopefully it's in his PM so you can read it in PM - still need help please kathy

Hi. Kathy may have accidently deleted something. She thinks it was your last PM. Can you resend it?

still problem pulling my hair out seriouslly tom is trying to help does not work 2 different subjects are posted about 10 from each subject appear from yesterday to today

@Alex Brecher proudgrammy is still having issues receiving email from the forums. I've checked her profile and the correct email address is coded. I've tested the Spectrum mail servers and she can successfully send emails to herself. I'm also seeing occasional email from other senders show up. We tried sending herself a PM from the forum and nothing showed up in her in basket. She had problems like this before and I had to create a new mailbox for her so she would get the emails. I can't think of a way to get further under the hood to diagnose what is going on. Need help here. Thanks. Tom (dh)

Wait and see game. time will tell kathy

hey dudes/dudettes six years ago today (12-15) i was waiting to go into the OR!! like most others i was terrified - so excited. having the sleeve was a great decision. i did it!!! i am still around and able to talk about "it" i did have my ups and downs, but easy recovery, all was/is good. i've enjoyed many wonderful NSV's. buying smaller clothes in a regular store. sitting in the middle seat of three on an airplane. i am able to do many normal, basic day to day activities now that i had difficulty doing six (6) years ago! it's wonderful. might sound silly, but i love that i am able to bend up and down and up and down etc., pulling those damnnn weeds on my front lawn!! no longer run from the camera (especially family pics) sit closer to the steering wheel. i get in and out of the car with no trouble. putting on seat belt is no prob. when i sat down in restaurant booth and movie seat for the 1rst time after weight loss, i said "these seats have gotten bigger!! my health has dramatically improved.!! medication dosages have been lessened or gone all together. i KNOW my attitude has changed/improved. i feel better than before about myself. i am not perfect!! welllll, then again!! LOL Life is NOT all peaches and cream just cuz i lost weight. i still might have problems. But the fact that i look pretty damnnnn good, helps me to deal with some issues better than when i was heavy. i could tell you more about some problems - but then what would i tell you on my 7th year surgiversary? my sleeve is very smart - it helped teach me how to eat and drink properly - knowledge of Proteins and carbs and other things. moderation etc. at 6 years - my success must/does all come from my head/mind!! i'm on my own. (no restriction left to speak of) but that's ok. i remember everything i learned - work hard to follow the rules all the time. but, once again, even i'm not perfect, really. sad to say i am 8.3 lbs over GOAL, but i am working on fixing situation. (guess honesty is one of my better qualities) LOL see you next year Kathy

@FluffyChix awwwww, back at ya bud!! huggggggs me

@CaliforniaCandy et al you are all embarking on a wonderful trip in WLS land!! we are alllll very smart people, as we made the wise decision to have WLS!!! i will celebrate my 6th year surgiversary tomorrow!!! (12/15) the sleeve and i are quite the happy, good lookin', cute, couple I will be 64 years YOUNG next month (1/12) many of my physical problems have improved. dosages lowered. i still consider myself at GOAL, but i am now 8.4 lbs over (pleases don't tell anyone else!!) no doubt in my mind, i'll nip those excess lbs in the bud before you can say, "I have the cutest 3 grand-kids in the world!!" present company excluded of course!

@Creekimp13 keeping records are great. you are ACES!!!! if you never blogged, it's never too late. start pre-op - post op any time after surgery. NOT keeping a record of my pre and post op surgery was a big regret for me. i wish i had kept a blog of all my good, bad, and normal experiences for myself. how my eating, drinking - stuff like that went. records of all my NSV's - (clothing shoes sizes, changes, riding in an airplane, reactions from OP seeing me for the first time since i lost weight) .many other things too - many many daily events - hard to remember, wish i had kept records. to you my friend - you & other people - you are all definitely "smart cookies" no calories/carbs/sugar included. glad things are moving along well. i know you will continue to do great. kathy congrats
