Thanks, Nally. Might get a fill today. Find out at 3:30.

Going great! 42 lbs down. How's your class coming along? almost done?

things going great here. Down almost 30 lbs since the pre-op diet. so, 30 in a month. What they did for me was after I finished the classes and got the insurance approval for surgery, they gave me a list of all the tests and where to get them done. Most of them I had done at the hospital. But I tell ya, I had a ton of appointments. eeek

doing great here. I have been lucky not to have much hunger between meals yet. But, I am not even a week into mushies. Congrats on your loss thus far!!! That rocks.

Have u gone to any more meetings?

Hey Nat. How's ur classes goin?

Viv, what's new? How you getting along?

Excellent. I am doing well. First day back at work. I did stay overnight. I had my surgery at like 5 pm..... now that was difficult since I was fasting since 9 pm the following night. LOL

That is good to hear about the group. I will look up the schedule and see when they meet. Those bypassers will not be able to eat the same foods we will so the joke is on them. HA!

Wishing you a speedy recovery as well.

Hey, Viv.... glad to hear you are recovering well. :-)

Thanks, ya'll. :-)

All is well and I am adjusting. not much discomfort and should be back to work tomorrow or Wed. :-)

I am using Dr. Halmi at BluePoint in Woodbridge. :-)

Cool! Will u be attending the support meetings there? I am considering it.

My surgery is on Oct 12th. The 6 month program I had to attend was insurance mandated and more of a nutrition class than anything. I knew everything they told me but I had to go and attend anyway. So far, I am on day two of my opti-fast diet. haven't been too hungry yet... BUT yesterday a person at work brought 2 dozen donuts to work AND another person brought 2 pies. Way to tempt a guy on his first day of a sub 1000 cal diet. lol

Cool. I did my 6 month as well and am so glad to be coming close to my surgery date. Are you in northern VA?
