    Greetings from Michigan!

    I have not had the surgery yet. I am waiting for a date. :bored:I am envious that your surgery is over for you . I think that is what most people are anxious about. i know that is what I am about. I am from NH but was invited last summer to Frankfurt, MI and loved it!!!! :thumbup:Anyway, sorry I got side tracked! Go girl!:sad_smile:
  4. Hello out there!! I have three pounds to go before I can schedule my date cannot wait. Next Wed I weigh in...yes i am nervous. Will it be right for me? Will I be able to tolerate the side effects? all those questions going through my mind. But I have been working on this since April and have all my ducks in a row and am ready to go>>>> I think:unsure:
  5. Hello scardy-cat I can just imagine what your mind is going through. I have not had the surgery but I just wanted you to know I will be thinking of you. I will be having the same feelings and questions so you are not far off.... YOu hang in there and ask a way... the more info you gather the better you will feel!! Thinking of you in Hawaii!!! all the way for New Hampshire!!!
  6. Hello, I have been reading a lot of the messages people are posting and it has jump started me to work on losing my last 3 pounds before I can schedule my surgery !! I began my quest in April. I have everything in place except these last three pounds. I am using the protein shake for breakfast and lunch and a light dinner. Hopefully that will do the trick.

     

    I am not sure how to do this posting and all so I'm giving this a try. I hope I did this right and someone is able to read this...

  7. Don't start your diet until after you weigh in on friday. They will take your highest weigt and measure from then. So enjoy your week. The best advice I could give you is get all the paper work in, all your test completed.. the meetings are very helpful, and you really do need the time to mull all the pros and cons.... take care!!
  8. Hello, yes I am going to DH in Manchester and yes it is also with Dr. Gould!! I am unable to attend the meeting in July (I'll be in Maine) but I have been to three. I will most likely be at the meeting in Aug!! Welcome!!I am waiting to hear from the Dr. to set up a date, and of course I am working on loosing the 1olbs!
  9. I am not banded yet, I have all the paper work completed and meetings completed. My mindset is good, I do enjoy looking thru all the postings, sure does help. One of my biggest fears was logging on here and actually writing something. Phew, I did it, I only hope I did it right. I am in the prosess of loosing the initial 10lbs, I have lost 4-5 depends on the day. A bit nervous, My friend had the bypass surgery in march and she is doing great. I so want to be loosing too!
