Hello ladies...I know its been a looooong time. It has been really busy! Works picking up and has home!

Update: Since surgery 12/10 I've lost 26 pounds gained 2....I can't break past the number I'm sitting at. It's funny I seem to be losing weight in 5 pound increments! I'm sitting at 260. I was thinking of doing liquids for a week to kind of jump start things...but we'll see. I've picked up my exercising again. cardio and strength training. I'm just trying to get used to things. Eating a totally new way after 30+ yrs is not an overnight thing...but I'm getting there.

So how is everyone? Mandy? Sonia? When is the next lunch....love to join you guys....

I am using Dr. Lutfi at Mercy hospital in Chicago. They are slower than all get out, but they are taking care of all of the paperwork. Has anyone had experience with him? My surgery is 4/8

My sister just moved to lindenhurst, and I would love to meet people too! Count me in!

Yes! I am 4 days post op with Dr. Lupti and Rossette. Dr. Rosette did my surgery. I am a little uncomfortable but the surgery went well. I love the process there and I will be at group at 6:00 tomarrow. My name is Ms. Tammie. Will You be there?
