Oh my gosh Betsy, I'm so shocked to hear what all has happened with you. Broken vertebrae! Compressed discs! I have missed your posts, but I just thought you were laying low with symptoms from the Lupas--not to make light of that condition. I know how debilitatling it can be. I can't believe you'll be back to exercise so soon--but you are a trooper. I'm trying to decide if I should get a fill this Thursday or wait till next week. I definately need one but I have a friend spending all day Friday and Saturday. I don't want to open up about the band to her. You take care of yourself.

As of this morning, the Dr. says I can do Tai Chi. The inflammation in my back is gone and he says it won't hurt the work we're doing to repair the bones. So....unless I chicken out, I'm going to the May Center tonight. It's free for anyone who wants to go, and I just called and they said you don't have to sign up...just show up. Tai Chi QiGong is at 6:30 and Tai Chi Quan is at 7:30. I have no idea what the difference is. I'll go to the 6:30.

I've now graduated to the chiropractor...whose assistant has had gastric bypass!

Oh, and the chiro's engaged to a woman who does plasic surgery on the loose skinned bellies of Spivak and Spiegel's lap band patients. Small world. (And who also recently went to Thailand and stayed in the same hotel I was in!)

(Can you tell I'm back?...can't seem to condense my thoughts into a single posting.... Typical.)

Anyway, if anyone needs a new chiro, I love this guy....and I think somewhere he has a $200 off deal if I refer you, and I get $25.....so let me know if you want me to dig up that discount card.....

I'll come next week. I just had a bad time eating fish at Cedars Landing. I got a little PB action. This is the second time:( Glad you are getting back to your old self. Don't overdo Tai Chi till your sure. Sounds like you have a great connection with the Chiro.

My friend and I were going to go to Thai Chi tonight but she has rh. arth. and her back is really bothering her so I guess I will wait and go next week with the rest of you! The lady I talked to at the May Center said the 6:30 class would be better for those of us that are beginners and a true beginners class will start in August.

Great Cyndie! This will be fun and free! Are you still cowgirl shooting or dressing:)? I'm the one that my husband was wanting to join SASS.

Glad you are able to take advantage of the "free" classes. Just my luck you send me to one that costs! I signed up for 3 months so I'm out another 250. I'm enjoying them sorta of so I'll stick with it for the summer. :(

Now that y'all are taking Tai Chi at 6:30 when are we getting together for dinner. I go to Tai Chi M,W until 6 and I guess y'all go at 6:30. Guess we should pick another night for dinner. Next week is our regular time to meet so let me know what we're doing.

Today is my 1 year bandanniversary. I'm down 60 lbs, down from size 24 to 18/16. I feel so much better. Hopefully I can lose another 50 lbs next year.

Glad you're doing better Betsy. Can your chiro get us a discount on plastic surgery? I need my arms done!

Tai Chi is only Wednesdays, so Monday still works for me for getting together...... Humble or Atascocita.

Congrats on your anniversary! What a huge difference in clothing size!

I'll ask about the arm surgery, but I doubt if there's a deal. They're trying to pay for their new house in Memorial......

Monday sounds good to me too for our get together. Sorry about finding out about free Tai Chi a little late in the game. Congrats from me too Barb on the success you are having with your banding! That new books says it takes 3 years to get the full weight loss, so I'm sure you'll get to your goal. Hope to see all Monday!

Hey Barbara---Sounds like Humble is more convenient than Huffman, but if not...why don't you ask if you can get your $ back.....or patial $. You'll never have to wear your jammies again.....

I'll stay with the Humble location for Tai Chi. I don't wear that uniform anymore so I'm liking it even better.

Monday at 6:15 Humble Inn works for me. Hope everyone can make it.

      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!

      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
