Congrats Jeni!

Kim do you have any liquid tylenol? that helped me (except when i forgot i had just been banded, rolled over and tried to pick up a blanket from the floor in the middle of the night. OOOUUCCHH)

Since November is almost over should we try to get together in early December for a holiday lunch?

Kimillion, I would also recommend Dr. Meyer. I, too, live on the southside of the city. Though I have not yet obtained the band (scheduled for Jan 2008), I have thus far, had a great experience with Dr. Meyer.

As an FYI, most of the area hospitals offer the surgery. Day One Health impressed me because they were an outpatient surgicial center, and they seem to focus exclusively on lap bands.

i love the toyota of naperville on ogden folks - esp the service guys when i go in for my oil changes. we have 7 scions now in the family butweve all gone different places...

i'm up for going anywhere. the 8th works for me.

i tried to cook something in the oven since i've been sick for a week & now i am finally starving - course the sausage or pizza gick at the bottom caused a big ole smoke out! so now i'm fricken freezing with the patio door open trying to desmoke my house. gggrrr!!

We had popeyes for dinner tonight. Last night was dinner with Dave's family so I didn't have any leftovers either...sucks. I'm having Christmas here, so I will have goodies afterwards.

Did anyone go shopping today? I got some really good deals, but now I'm exhausted. I'm sick, lacking sleep and didn't get coffee until lunch. I need sleep. ~Mandy

      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.
