Hey y'all. I was wondering if we had anyone from New Orleans in the group. I'm looking to start a meet up for local sleevers. If you interested let me know.

I know you posted this a while back... but im interested (waving hand). Any groups or anything local?

Oh and Hi!

Hi KajunGumbo! That's great! I'm 15 days post op and have lost 15 pounds; 22 since pre- op meeting. I think I had a real easy time compared to some folks. Really glad I did it. Message me anytime!

How much are you eating? Are you handling solids?

I am on soft foods now. You kind of learn how much you can handle pretty quick. Your body has a definite signal, like a catch in your chest, that says you can't eat another bite. I can get about six regular bites, more if you take little tiny ones. Doing great, but kind of overdid last two days taking kids to parades and going out to lunch with friends. Overall, really happy I did this. How are you today??

Completed my preop @ hospital yesterday, heading to Disney for MardiGras until Wednesday. Caught several parades last weekend & last night, that's enough lol
