  1. You saw David then. I missed it. Mom is having surgery. What is your wife's name. I wonder if i know her. When was her surgery? How much has she lost? Lisa
  2. I'm really sorry u had trouble Kim. I hope you feel ether soon. Lisa
  3. After I started losing a lot of weight I was having those spells where I'd get light headed and almost faint. Turned out my bp was too low and they took me off my bp meds. Get it checked. Lisa
  4. SSF staff were amazing. There was one nurse who diTNT do much but other then that, great experience.
  5. My doctor, Dr David Le, said he checks for leaks when he's still operating. So I didn't have to do that test. Thank goodness. Keep up the good work Kim. Lisa
  6. That's good Kim. What I'm wondering is why you went to radiology in the first place? I never had to do that. I'm about to rip through my 100th stall. I can feel it. I was hoping for 159 by 6 month checkup but don't think that will happen. But I'm journaling again and doing Bootcamp so I really think I'll get through this stall. Some have asked me if it was worth it getting surgery for 56 lbs? Answer: yes!!!!! Nothing else has ever helped me get to this weight nor help rid me of high bp, high cholesterol, and sleep apnea. I'm working on my last 22 lbs. Those are the hard ones. I'm taking them 5 lbs at a time
  7. Neil I do have Facebook but I do not talk about my sleeve on facebook at all. I share an account with my 15 year old daughter. Her and I are very open about everything, but I do not talk publicly about my surgery. if it's a private group, that would be great. I'll email you my FB name.
  8. Neil I'm in petaluma and would live tocome to a support group there. Message me if and when you have one. I would love to talk to others in person about the surgery. I'm 5 months post op. Lisa
  9. Happy for you amber. Big pat on the back. 5 lb increments are perfect. I'm with you on that. Lisa
  10. What a great support group up there in Sacramento. Id like to go to one here near me or in Santa rosa. A friend of mine had a clothing swap party, I brought all my big clothes and got rid of them all. In return I got a cute coat, couple of skirts, and sweaters. Great idea, I thought.
  11. I don't eat celery but at 4 1/2 months out I ate popcorn. Didn't bother me, I just ate less of it.
