Hey everyone going through Kaiser Richmond!!

Where are you in the process?

Morning all,

Pam!! How much have you lost? I notice your ticker says 208!

I got some weight watcher meals I am going to eat for lunch, seems good to try. we shall see. getting my butt kicked by a sinus infection/ear infection so not doing to good this week =( (health wise, food ok)

I think I'm the only one here going through Fremont Kaiser, but I am sure they all pretty much use the same system.

Hi All -stopping by for a quick Hi. I did not fall off the face of the earth, just been struggling alot and also very busy. Read the first page here, but can't read all that I missed so catch me up on any big news from my Sistas of Surgery!

Really struggling with the eating for the wrong reasons - you name one and I've probably done it recently. Trying hard to get back to following all the rules, but it is hard. I'm still playing with the same 2 - 3 lbs.

I don't think my restriction is right yet, but it is definately better than before I had my first fill. I have had episodes of getting stuck, PBing and sliming - all such lovely experiences!! Mostly happens if I don't chew well enough or eat too fast and don't let everything catch up or do one of my emotional eating binges. I want to force myself to get back to following the program consistently before I contact Dr. Park about another fill.

Still struggling to get a regular exercise routine during the week. So far I walked after work on Monday and went to Yoga Tuesday night. Was going to walk tonight but since I haven't left work yet that is not going to happen.

I promise to come on again more often, as I know I need your support. Also have set a goal for myself to lose 27 lbs by 9/13 which will be my 1 year anniversary of starting on this journey with my pre-op diet.

I think someone mentioned a walk and lunch in Vallejo - I am definately up for that - would love some hugs from my sistas! When?

Pat I have missed you!!!!

Pay, YAY!!!!! We missed you bunches!

How about Saturday June 26th for our Vallejo outing? Meet at 10:30 @ the waterfront? Who's in???

YAY Pat, so good to see you. I've really missed you. Would you please PM me your email address. I thought I had it, but I don't. I met a woman at the Kaiser group that lives up in your area and I told her about you.

Riley, I had hoped to finally make it to one of the walks but I'll be away on vacation that week.

I leave tomorrow at 3:30am for my 15 day trip to the South of France. I'm so looking forward to it!

Take care everyone!

I got the call yesterday and my appt with the surgeon was moved to the 18th I was so mad. It is so hard being so far away cause I have to take a day off just to go to any appts and its so frustrating when they bump me. So the lady I talked to told me the diet should have started after orientation...yikes. That was a year ago so I hope I am not in too much trouble!

I want to get my surgery moving! Any advice on how? I am not very flexible and able to be on a cancel list for appts unfortunatley :eek:

Good Thursday afternoon all!

How is everyone doing? Sorry, I have been MIA for awhile, have been taking care of school duties, home & church too!

I am backing up onto track, w/ a 2mile walk(great cool day for it) and workout inhome. Hope everyone is doing well.

Welcome to allll the newcomers...congrats on beginning such a wild, interesting and rewarding journey!

(Cookiemonst-sp?) I had surgery in SSF, and am very glad I did...u can pm me with questions! Was banded 12/08...and am still on the learning curve...it is a lifestyle changing!

I sure miss everyone, BUT I have been keeping up with the reading, so glad Tina and all are back, Reggie u still around?

So here is a crazy thought...how bout a Vallejo Bridgewalk, THIS sat the 12th and lunch? Anyone game? Thought we could get one in before Chrissy's surgery next week.

Sorry Riley, I cannot make the 26th, that is our support group day...Riley could u come here too? There is a plastic surgeon planned for that day AND the author of "Fat No More" w/ a seminar. I plan on going, anyone else (w/ Tina) doing the seminar afterwards? We could maybe even bring a light bag lunch, if anyone is game. Can't wait to see (& HUG) everyone again! I really miss our ladies...of course John too!

Just thought I would check in...ready to bounce back in with my band on...and prepare well before the big bday.

Hope everyone is doing well, pls forgive me for not being around...email if you get a chance!
