    Looking for a july bithday buddy.

    Great work everyone. :thumbup: My birthday is July 18 and I was given a July 20,09 band date. Dr. has said I may get moved up in dates if there is a cancellation so I am just waiting. Trying to keep my head in a good place about all this. I need to get rid of 100 or more pounds. Good luck to all and Happy Birthday to everyone in July. imaluckydog

  3. Hi Kristen,

     

    I had an exhausting day. WOW that morning took a lot out of me. They keep you very busy with a little waiting> I am on the run now but I will get back with all the details and we can share our journey and then go shopping and out to lunch in the Back Bay. When we can shop for regular size close and get 50% off and not have to always pay full price. I am still glad I am doing this. TTTF

  4. Hi Pati, I have my pych and nutrition meetings at Lahey Burlington tomorrow. Yes, I am taking a day off from work to take care of ME. Yaaaa I am planning on attending your meeting on the 26. Thanks for the invite. I am sure it will be heart felt and honest. I know you will do well. I will introduce myself as Kathy.

    Have a great day.

  5. I will ask about this lecture on May 26, I was invited by the person speaking. She sent me a post which was so nice. I will get some information for both of us. I may go just to hear how she did. But it is a hike, from where I live almost forty minutes away.

    Have a great day. I am trying not to think about it to much. I keep saying to myself GOOD THINGS are worth the wait.

    Well the pictures are bad I just hate pictures of myself I do hope that will change. Yes, you are correct I do need them if ever I have to get up and talk about this with someone or to see how far I came on my journey , it will be important.

    I love the back bay area of Boston. I will look for you on the chat tomorrow night when I get back and I can fill you in if you want me too? Hope all is well and Thanks for the message. Kathy imaluckydog

  6. Hi K, My first name begins with K does yours?

    I'm Kathleen, but everyone calls me Kathy and when my mother was mad at me as a young girl she would scream Katrina!!!! Funny I still remember that.... My mother, Oh Well I'll go there another day.... If you know what I mean!

    Ok, so my husband calls me "pretty lady" too, you both are so cute. I feel like I already know you. xoxoxoxo

    I am going to Lahey Burlington tomorrow for my three hour psych/nutrition appointment to see everyone under the sun. I am a little nervious. I will enjoy the day off from work. I see your app is in June on the 9th. Maybe I can share with you who, what,where,when and we both know WHY....Hhuh at least I do. Do you have a Dr. yet?

    5/15/09 My Drug of Choice

    You are right on about the head aches. I have had them. That is good advice to ween off before surgery. I will keep that in mind. Thanks imaluckydog
  8. Hi, I found your page. Pretty in Pink. You are Good at this. I have no idea how to make a page. My dream is to fit into "Lilly Pulitzer clothes" I love the colors. Are you going to the meeting on May 26 at Lahey? I was invited to go by someone who is speaking. I can not remember who she is but she is someone who lost her weight or most of it. Any way have a nice day.

    My son took a picture of me yesterday and I just can't stand it, makes me sick lol

    5/15/09 My Drug of Choice

    Hi, You are a POET but I think you know it......lol I just LOVE COFFEE. That is my drug of choice for sure. Is coffee a no no when you get the band? Because of the caffeine? I could smell it all day long. Hope you are having a good day? I just had my son take some pre pictures. I did not want to look at them. But I did. Ok it is over now. imaluckydog
  10. Hi Pati,

     

    When did you say you were speaking at speaking at Lahey in Burlington Mass? I think it was May 26 is that correct?

    I would love to hear you. I have found people on this site so honest and that is me today. yap shut and HONEST.

    I have been collecting information all day.

    I am not sure just how to use this site so I seem to have lost your post to me. I think I made you a friend.

    I hope you had a nice day. It flew by for me.

    Thanks for listening.

  11. Hi Band Groupie,

    I have learned so much from you and just reading your blog makes me HAPPY. Thank you

    I figured out how to get a picture. Not me yet, I still hate pictures of me!! I have started to write a "Bucket List" My first will and has to be let someone take a picture of me and I will like the picture. I only have one of me that I like. It was taken before all the extra pounds and before children. I guess I could say I was a real "Babe" back in the day ha ha.

    People are so honest on this site and that is what it has to be for me NOW. I am honest with myself that the time has come, I need help on this life struggle. Thanks for being there for me.

    I like how people talk of a new birth day. I was born in July so I am hoping my LB date will be in July.

    I just want to say I read your blog every night.

    Bucket list

    WOW, this is making me have to think!!!! I am going to get back to you because I never thought much about what my life would be like when I got rid of this weight. I'm not even banded yet and I now have something to think about, Read about and plan for, it's about me now isn't it....... Thank you imaluckydog

    Lost...

    Hi Brittany, You are OK!!! Yes, I also feel same way as you. I have been approved but do not have a date yet. I am 52 DID I just say that??? Now thats hard to belive. Because I will be 18 till I die!! No kidding. I needed to ask for help on this one. Oh yes the doctors have been suggesting this for about 6 or more years. I did not want to listen to them. I was in denial I think hu I know. Six weeks ago I had a health complication and end up in the hospital. I was totally dependant on others to take care of me. That just sucked. No Kidding.... Having support is key. I am NOT, that is NOT going to tell everyone. People watch me do WW and I am good at it. So let them think what they want. Only my Dr. and Family know I will be doing this. I have found some very nice people to chat with on this page. I do not know how to work the site yet either. The more I explore the more interesting it gets. I do not have a picture becuse I do not know how to get one do you? I will need support too, I'm glad I found this site. I'd like to be a support if you will for me too? I will be having it done at Lahey in Burlington Ma. Have a nice day. imaluckydog
  14. I am having what I was told is a three hour work up. Did you have that. Sounds like I will be there all day. I am not sure how long it will tale to get a date after this work-up. Some people I have read have to wait a very long time. That will probably drive me crazy. How long did you have to wait and what happens after the three hour evaluation? Is it different for everyone? Thanks for your reply imaluckydog
  15. THANK YOU

    I will poke around I always seem to end up not knowing what I just clicked, I book marked your blog so at least I will know how to get back there. I sort feel like I am on that Yellow brick road. I have enjoyed reading your blog I do feel a lot better now than before. I will be ok with this. I can not believe just how much people have to say about LB. Again thanks for your help and support. I just want to hug you!!!!

  16. Hi BG, Thanks so much for the kind words. You made me feel good. I just loved your mother's day post, so nice.

    Prom, I rode the bus with our Junior Prom goers..... They are so sweet. The school took five buses. My they grow up so fast. Thanks for being a friend. I do not really know how to manage the site yet. I have learned so much from just reading. I am finding it hard not thinking about the LB every moment.

     

    I am Lucky thats for sure! Not sure how to use this site but am trying to figure it out. Have you been doing this long?

    Thanks for the support.

  17. Hi, I will be having mine done at Lahey. I just want to talk to someone who has been there and done this before. I am 52 and have put this off for so long. Thanks for listening.

  18. Hi, I love your sense of humor. Thanks, I have been reading all I can and your blog is the best. I am 50 and have been approved for lap band. No date yet. I am very nervous. My family is supportive. I do not want to tell anyone as I have been a failure at every diet I have ever tried. I work with food so I am around it all the time. I can not change careers at this point in my life. I just want to live long enough to enjoy my children. This is my first message to anyone. imaluckydog
