East Coast Bash Recap & Count



Recommended Posts

Hey guys, Just wanted to remind everyone of the East Coast Bash.

It is the weekend of Sept 23, 24, 25.

Some of us are arriving on the 22nd and leaving on the 26th. I am staying at the Wyndham Garden Hotel by Laguardia. So taxi's for me everywhere.

Thursday, the 22nd I will arrive in the afternoon and would be up to meeting someone for dinner possibly.

Friday, the 23rd we had discussed a dinner to meet and greet everyone. Has anyone decided on a place or time?

Saturday, the 24th is the Walk from Obesity 5K along Riverside Park. If you are interested in participating then here is the link.

Manhattan, NY - The American Society for Bariatric Surgery - Walk From Obesity - Sept. 24, 2005

Sunday, the 25th is a free day or travel day for some. I plan on going to some museums or just walking the streets of New York and playing sight-seer. Anyone wanna go with?

I think NJCHICK mentioned something about if it was gonna be in Joisey then she would be there. Well right now there are NO REAL plans. So it could be anywhere in the NJ/NY area at this point. LOL!!!

So peoples speak what would you like to do? Any suggestions?

I would love to attend but I will be away til Sept.27/28. The following weekend would be perfect for me. Has the date been confirmed? I don't mind any east coast location. It's the date that is more important. I know it's difficult to accommodate all so I'll just keep watching to see the date and location.

Have a great time!!!!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
