June 2013 Sleevers GROUP

[Museum-Mama 196]

I have cliked on this link and advised me that it does not work..... can you help me out. I may have to send you a friend request directly because my page is private so that you can invite me.

I cannot PM you the link to my profile to be added as a friend. I know the link works, but I guess because it is private and a closed (invite only) group, it wont work. Seems silly, but reassures me this is truly a private page. I need to know how to get intouch with you without plastering my private info on the web as well.

Can you PM on here your e-mail addy that you use on Facebook? I can add you to the group that way.

[Museum-Mama 196]

I think it's a great idea but it still shows you added yourself to a group even if its closed. People just can't read what it's about but the name of the group tells it all. I'm not telling my Facebook friends/family and they are already asking how I'm losing my weight.

Ok, I see that I am using the incorrect terminology. This is a SECRET group. Not just a closed group, which, as you say, can be seen by your friends. I have attached a photo of the Facebook descriptions and the Group info for those interested.

NewMommy, I am not being argumentative at all. I believe what you say. I just want those who may be uncertain to be very clear that this group truly is SECRET.

PLEASE NOTE:If you e-mail to the Group address you see in the picture, it will go to the WHOLE group. So please e-mail me directly ar museummamma@facebook.com. Thank you.

Museum-Mama, you're right about the difference between closed & secret groups. I belong to 3 other secret groups on FB & nothing shows up anywhere from them, except in my view on my newsfeed. Not the name of the group, no posts, no pictures, etc. I look forward to being a part of this one, too.

Ok friends' date=' if you want a Facebook group, I need some e-mail addresses! Please private message them to me rather than just posting them out in the open....unless you feel comfortable doing that. Or you can PM me on facebook at museummamma@facebook.com. Again, this will be a closed, and private group. You have to request to be added.

That is awesome!!! You must feel amazing!!!

[blackcloudkygirl 46]

Thanks Brenda0928, you are doing great as well. I feel like a new person, I'm so happy I had this surgery. This past week I have been stalled at 300lbs....so close to 299...it's killing me...lol I haven't weighed in the 200's for 20+years.

[ecteacher 1]

blackcloudkygirl, you are doing awesome, how did you loose so much before surgery?

[blackcloudkygirl 46]

Hi ecteacher. There are a few reasons on why I lost so much pre surgery...first, I did the 4 week nutrition classes, plus I had already begun following a weightwatchers like plan about 3 weeks or so before the nutrition classes started. I really followed the WW plan because I was afraid my insurance wouldn't let me have the surgery if I didn't show I could lose. So I lost about 35+ lbs then, but my surgeon asked me to go on the liquid pre op diet for 4 weeks, opposed to the normal 2 weeks. He said, the more I could lose before surgery, the safer and better my body would react. So 4 weeks of a liquid diet, was crazy and I could never ever do it again, it took all I had...lol I lost about 40 lbs on the pre op diet. I never cheated on the liquid diet, cause I was so afraid of having complications in surgery. It seems so crazy to me as we'll to have lost so much before surgery, but I have so much to lose, that in retrospect it's not actually that much.

How are you doing after the surgery, everything going good?
