Cynthia O'Kelly

lambishop, My name is Cynthia and I am a Program director for TLCEdge. Please, please, please call me at 214-243-0840. This is my personal cell. I know for a fact that Tamisha has been trying to call you. We think one of the numbers you left was transcribed. Also, please know that every visit is not $400.00, just the first one. She is trying to get in touch with you. She wants you to come in.

Hey Everyone! Just wanted to let you know my book it out! This is Cynthia O'Kelly. I work for TLCEdge! The name is "Lost and Found: A Guide To The Lap-Band Journey". it is available from me or Amazon .com. I am so excited about this! It answers most if not all of your questions! We spent 3 years doing this just to try to get all the info we could. Check it out! Cynthia

Gosh! You are doing fantastic! Keep up the good work! Cynthia

Shannon, George (Rueben) is leaving and we will miss him. Kim will be great, just have a wee bit of patience. We have several that have been trained to do fills by Allergan and are coming up in the ranks. So sorry she hurt hyou. I remember in the early days of my banding, I use to look like someone had smacked me around for all the bruises I got! Yikes! Hang in there! Cynthia

Stephanie, Actually, the DFW Bandsters group is the best for the multimedia. We did have a group for multimedia, but no one got involved, so we decided to nix it. Plus the DFW Bandsters is the better deal...more people involved! Cynthia

Pat, I was with my mother, so we never took the stairs. I just went slow and chewed well. I am glad you have recognized your problem with this fill, Try to eat at specific times in order to stay on top of the hunger. Thanks for defending us on the post. I hope she calls! Cynthia

Hey! It is Cynthia. I just got back from vacation and saw your post. Please call me at 972-792-2799 and ask for me. Let's see if I can help. Cynthia

Thanks Pat! I will see if I can help her/him. It is funny as I had to relearn to eat after each time I got a fill as well! New restriction--new way to chew! The good news is that when we are banded, we tend to lose weight on trips. I just got back from a cruise and found out I lost 2 pounds! Wahoo! Not even trying. Just was more active than I normally am. Ate lots of good food, but I don't think I overdid it. My sister was ticked as she gained about 5 pounds! Love my band! Cynthia

Hey guys! I hope everyone has been surviving this heat! I just got back in town from vacation and saw that some of you were going to attend the Saturday lunch. I hope you guys did! How was it? Sounds like everyone is doing well. I did not see the post about the unhappy patient, so if you can direct me to the proper place, I will see if I can contact him/her and help them out! Cynthia
