Dacry--I will definately take you up on the shopping spree--Lord knows there is no shopping up here in the woods--unless you like Carharts!

I was approved and had all my paperwork in by the middle of May and was just banded on Monday (7/26) at Theda Clark. I'm not sure where you are at in WI or where you are having your surgury, but I am having a great experience with Dr. Wasco at Theda and well.... i'm feeling good enough to be on the website :) WHOOOO HOOOOOOO!

Kimber, you lucky girl! It might have seemed like a long wait, but I don't think that approval took long at all! You'll be banded in no time flat.

Funny Carhart comment... do they have any plus size overalls?

Hey Kimberly,

It was about 6 wks for me... it would have been 4 wks if my surgeon wasn't attending a conference somewhere out of the state.

Hey Kiley... we are neighbors! There is a support group meeting in FDL the first Thursday of every month if you would be interested in attending. It is held at the Aurora clinic... I know I will be going in August. My sister had the gastric bypass with Dr. Wasco at Theda Clark as well.

Let us know when you get a date Kimberly!

Hi All,

I am in the northwoods of Wisconsin--Florence County--up on the border of the Upper Penninsula of Michigan.

I think they DO make plus sized Carharts--seeing as how my brother in law wears them! ha ha :)

Anyhoo--now waiting for the phone to ring and window shopping--don't dare purchase anything YET!

Told my mom and my fave brother--both very supportive--as well as my super husband--he's so thrilled to get a "new hot wife"---I cautioned him and told him to watch out, it'll still be cranky old me!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
