Hi all,

I would like to consider this get together. Am I invited even though I haven't been banded? I have my date with the surgeon on Jan. 10th and have been working hard through this since August. I come from Cape Cod but would consider Braintree Mall because I think I know how to get there and I don't know how to get to too many places. And, the 13th is OK with me. If you agree that I can come, I think I could learn a lot from the girls I have been following since Aug.:phanvan Nana

I would love that...anytime is good for me as well. Does anyone have a time that is best for them? If possible, I would love to meet before the lunch rush gets to be too much. What do you all think?

I'll check with DH tonight and see if he'll watch the little ones that day. You know men, they usually hate to babysit. If he says yes, I'm in. Thanks aaamom for setting this up, it should be fun.

I haven't been participating in this chat, but I've been reading what you've written (the banding stalker:) ) I'd like to come to your get together. I was banded on June 6, 2006 at Emerson Hospital in Concord. Hope to see you Jan. 13.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
