Looking for fellow bandsters in So. Missouri



Recommended Posts

I live near Mountain Grove Missouri and was wondering if there are any other bandsters in my area. I would love to meet with some folks and get a support group going. I know I will do better with this band if I have lots of support.

I love this board and all the people I've met here so far. I'm just hoping to get some face to face support going as well.

Let me know if you are in my area. I'd love to meet you someday.

Hi Dianna, I live in Pacific, MO. I dont know where Mountain Grove is exactly but I am free to travel most anywhere since I am retired. If you get a group together I would love to coma and meet all of you. It would be real nice having a live support group where we could all get together once a month for a meeting and to socialize. I had my band surgery just yesterday and I am doing really good. Its less invasive then what I figured and I am not having to many problems. If this is all the pain I am going to have then its no big deal. A support group where we could all get together would be very important. You have to remember that this is just a TOOL for weight management and not a :ohmy: fix to being thin, its only a TOOL and how you use it will be the most important part of recovery. I cant stress that enough. I sure hope we can get a group together it would be really nice. Keep me in your prayers and contact me when you can. I am rather new to all this e-mail stuff so I might need some help along the way but talk to me when ever you want to Roy:smile:

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
