Lookin forward to the future !!

    Jimmy! Goomba!

    Howz by youse Chicago paisans? And how's your 60-weight gunk? Back down to 10W30? I had a 60-weight episode yesterday (and I really did think of you) when I ate a little meatloaf, forgetting that there's BREAD in meatloaf and the rest was both history and truly disgusting.

    Welcome!

    Fully blocked for 13 days? Wow, how did you manage during that time? I saw a post elsewhere by a man who unfortunately had to have his band out after being unable to get anything down for several days. Very sorry that this happened to you as well, but it's good that you were able to keep your band.

    Hey Quakergirl , How ya doin :

    They sent me home the same day with IV's in my arm so I wouldnt dehydrate. The only problem I experienced was that Ima one of dose lucky guys whos veins collapse about evey other day and had to keep stikin a new pin in all the time. Couldnt even swallow my own saliva - couldnt sleep either cuz the saliva would back up into my wind pipe and I'd wake up chokin avery 8 minutes..... Only slept 8 minutes at a time for 13 nights- back then life sucked !!

    Then on day 14 , I realized I had slept all night Like a bambino in my mothers arms -- jumped to my feet (or so goes da story)and enjoyed a bottle of grape gatorade. Now Ima eating fish , salads and soup - dats about it and I wont be needing a fill for quite somtime because Im still pretty tight. ** Lucky Me**

    Thanx for callin and I'l talk at ya again sometime..
