Thought I would start a thread for us local folks so we could exchange information about our meetings and local happenings. Our meetings are getting so big. See everyone Monday night.

Hi Jana, just where have you been, young lady? I was thinking about you yesterday and started to send you a PM, but the phone rang and I forgot. Is the meeting this monday, the 15th? and what time? I know it's at TRMH, but didn't know what time. Since I am officially a banster now, I need to go and get aquainted with everyone. AND, I'm glad you started a thread.

The meeting is this monday at 7:00pm. It is on the ground floor of the hospital. To get to the classroom you have to go through the cafeteria.

Congrats on now being a banster. How is everything going for you? See you Monday night.

Hey Lisa,

You need to fix you signature so everyone can see your progress. Go to you user cp at the top of the page and then click on edit signature. You can type anything you want on it. Most put the date of their surgery, their fills, weights or favorite sayings. If you want a ticker, go to tickerfactory.com and follow the directions. When you finish just highlight your ticker, copy it and paste it into your signature. Click save and it will automatically update all of your post with the new info.

Don't mean to be bossy, but as the weight melts away you want everyone to know about it and be happy for you.

If you need any help, let me know.

Thanks, Jana. Right now, it's top secret. lol No, really I just haven't done it yet. To tell the truth, I haven't lost a great big whole lot yet, since I haven't gotten a fill yet, I am having a problem with the "H" word. Yes, I am starving. But, I shall overcome! or try really hard.

later!

lisa

ticker test. did it work?

Looks great!!!!

Hey Jana, are we the only two around Mt. Pleasant? Are we gonna have to send up smoke signals to the others? I thought I might get to "meet" some more people around here. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to wait till Monday.

later,

lisa

man this weather is the pits we just got back from taking the granddog back to dallas and the rain was awful going and coming but we need the rain so back i'm trying not to complain.

i am suppose to go to texarkana tomorrow at 8 am for a fill i really hoping i the ice is not going to be an issue because i really want this fill!!!!

Hey Susan, I'm glad you got back safely from taking the granddog home. I'll bet she was glad to get home. I'll make another bet your dogs were glad for her to go home too. I sure hope the weather co-operates with you to go to Texarkana this morning. If not, well maybe you can go later this week. I have to go tommorrow at 10. I don't drive on ice, so I hope it's not a problem for me either. I'm glad you posted on this thread. I haven't posted on the other much this last week. I was hoping to get to know some other people from our area, but I guess they haven't looked lately. Talk to you later.

lisa

i guess i am not going to chance the drive today it is sleeting here at the house and i check the temp in texarkana and according to the weather bug it is 32.5 at the college

i want a fill but not this bad

i bet the support meeting will be cancelled tonite

Yep, I was hoping this would miss us. I'll bet the meeting is canceled tonite. I just imagine I won't get to go tommorrow. Got up this morning with a scratchy throat anyway. I don't really feel like getting out in this junk. Tanner (our son) is sick this morning with the same thing. He has an appointment this afternoon, but it's in MP. He will go, if I have to ride the horse. lol Dont that sound like fun?

Hey everyone! I just got back from Ft. Worth last night. Weather was bad but we did not see any ice on the roads. Was there for the stock show. Had a great time. I just got a call saying the meeting tonight is cancelled. I was looking forward to it. I have really been struggling since Christmas. I think I am going to call today and get an appointment for a fill. I have only had one. I don't know if I need it as much for my stomach as I do for my head. Hopefully psychologically it will give me a boost.

Everyone stay dry and warm.

Howdy everyone. Went for my post op check up this morning. I reckon everything went ok. I get my first fill Feb 5th. Cool. Jana, glad you had a good time at the stock show. I used to go up there on occasion. If you have had only one fill, girl you are doing great. I think all of us can relate to the head hunger. I had it bad last week. I was looking forward to the meeting also. Jamie said it will be re-scheduled, so maybe it will be soon. Susan, did you re-schedule your appointment? It sure was busy this morning. Hope you get in soon. Talk to yall later,k?

lisa

bye for now

susan

Hi Susan, glad to see that you don't have to wait too long for a fill. Tanner is ok, I guess. He got up with a temp this morning. I kept him home. The Dr. didn't give him any antibiotics, I guess I will have to take him to his regular Doctor. (He had tubes put in his ears last June. This was a check up on them, but he has a cold also.) Jana, did you get an appointment for a fill? I'm kinda nervous bout gettin the first one. I hope I'm not a big wimp bout it.
