maralbooster

HI Everyone, Though I have been part of Lapbandtalk for quite awhile, I have never posted. I have recently moved to Fort McMurray, Alberta and have just settled in. I was wondering if there were any bandsters on this forum from there that would like to meet up... Maral:)

HI Donna, Thanks, Donna I'm gradually getting used to a new environment. So far, it's been very friendly and welcoming...and most importantly, I am with my sweetheart full time...no more long distance for us! And, I'm glad to be getting back into teaching. This past year, I had a chance to meet some wonderful people...and I miss all of you as well... Create a great day, Maral

oops, my smilies don't seem to be working out here...I'll try again

HI Crowntown, I can understand people not wanting to reach out. Many people do like their privacy when it comes to weight loss with the band. I'm glad to hear you're looking for someone to chat with... You can respond here or if you want to email me privately at maralbooster at hotmail dot com. (I wrote it out this way because I don't know if it will appear if I write it as an email address) I'm happy to go out for coffee if you'd like ) I'm new in Fort McMurray and just settling in, getting used to being in a new place. It would be nice to connect with a banded person from Fort McMurray. Maral

You're most, welcome, Alex :confused: Day after surgery calls was one of the things I really enjoyed about my job. Many people were really appreciative... I hope that you are continuing well on your banded journey. Maral

Thank-you, Andrew, for the welcome Perhaps, people returning from vacation in the next few weeks may respond... Enjoy the day, Maral

oops, I tried to smile in the first sentence, but it didnt work out..I'll try again

HI Mandi, Thanks for the warm welcome ) Your activies are an inspiration to read and often bring a smile or a chuckle.... Actually you were in 'toon vacationing while I was there as well, but it was a pretty hairy time for us as we were in the process of moving and I didnt get the chance to contact you to meet up...perhaps another time, we will both find ouselves there and can meet up...My sweetheart is from Saskatoon, so we will be going back for visits... As for infamous...I can't recall ever being called that...but I guess there's a first time for everything...lol...My reputation preceedes me and there isnt a whole lot I can do to escape it ;o) As for who I am now...I'm just Maral, settling with her sweetheart in a new city, an elementary school teacher...looking to make new friends, perhaps banded ones to meet up with for thougtful and meaningful conversation.....banded December 2003 by Dr Yau at The Grace Hospital.... Create a great day, Maral
