Hi, I'm Merrillee, and I'm new here. Been on OH online a lot in the past. Just heard about LapBandTalk today from a nice gal in Dr. Oh's office, Jennifer. Thanks for pointing me here. Email me, and we'll talk.
Got a surgery date of April 3. Very cool. Hubby is totally on board and very helpful. Wants to see me healthy and off the many meds I now take for diabetes, high bp, cholesterol, etc. Sheesh. We are self-paying, but it's worth it.....much better for us than anything else we could do with the $$ at this point.
My favorite hobbies are singing at church, etc. and sewing....mostly for my doggies. I also have a business making clothes for pet boutiques. It's a lot of fun and keeps the hubby off my case for all the time I was already spending at the fabric store....lol. I'm sure that as soon as my own kids start having babies there will be lots of matching doggie and baby outfits.
So, anyone from the Tacoma/Gig Harbor area here? Let's get together via email and make a support group!
