Hello Everyone, The last group meeting was great. We had three new post op's members join us. Teresa, LSasha and Raquel thank you for coming out. As I said so many times that day, Teresa reminded me of my friend Angie. So out going and sweet as can be. I was really able to open up to you. LSasha you are a very nice person. We will need to talk more next time. Raquel we didn't really get a chance to talk much but I look forward to meeting with you again. We had not seen Billie Jean in a while and I was happy to see her walk in. I'm glad you are learning how your new banded tummy works. It helps to see others and how they are handling things after being banded. I Will join you guys soon and be able to share my story. I can't wait. To the rest of the group hugs to ya all.
