Hello All:

Just want to let you know that I had a wonderful time meeting with my LBT skating buddies today at Red Bird Skate! We usually do more talking and supporting than skating, but when we skate, we are burning off some serious calories.

What I like most about our skate meetings is that we don't have to be good skaters; each time we get on the skate floor, it builds our CONFIDENCE.

Most lap band support meetings I've attended in the past involve eating at a restaurant, which is cool. This activity, however, encourages exercise, movement, and supporting one another.

I feel a special bond each time I meet other banders "in person". We will be skating again soon, so come out and join us!:clap2:

I used to Skate Red Bird every Friday and Saturday night when I was a kid. Let me know when you plan another Skate date. I would like to join. I'm pre-band Nov 13th. But I think a great way to start my excersise program. There is another rink off of Ledbetter in Dallas called Southen Skate- an adult skate rink on Sundays, I think.

I've been reading the older posts and it sounds like ya'll had a great time.

I live in Shady Shores which is just south of Denton, about 30 miles north of Dallas. I live right off I-35.

I haven't been on skates in probably 30 years.... ;)

But it sounds like an awful lot of fun. Maybe if you choose a place north of or this side of Dallas, I could join you if I'm off.

Wow!!! Sounds like fun!! Wish I was in the Dallas area. Actually I spend 6 days a week in a skating rink. My daughter is a competitive roller skater. In fact, she will have her Regional competition in the Dallas area in June of this year. I skated competitively as a teen also, but havent really skated since I put on so much weight. I will for sure get back into it soon though. Im sick of being a bystander.

Maybe I can join you guys some day soon.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
