Oh my gosh Betsy, I'm so shocked to hear what all has happened with you. Broken vertebrae! Compressed discs! I have missed your posts, but I just thought you were laying low with symptoms from the Lupas--not to make light of that condition. I know how debilitatling it can be. I can't believe you'll be back to exercise so soon--but you are a trooper. I'm trying to decide if I should get a fill this Thursday or wait till next week. I definately need one but I have a friend spending all day Friday and Saturday. I don't want to open up about the band to her. You take care of yourself.

As of this morning, the Dr. says I can do Tai Chi. The inflammation in my back is gone and he says it won't hurt the work we're doing to repair the bones. So....unless I chicken out, I'm going to the May Center tonight. It's free for anyone who wants to go, and I just called and they said you don't have to sign up...just show up. Tai Chi QiGong is at 6:30 and Tai Chi Quan is at 7:30. I have no idea what the difference is. I'll go to the 6:30.

I've now graduated to the chiropractor...whose assistant has had gastric bypass!

Oh, and the chiro's engaged to a woman who does plasic surgery on the loose skinned bellies of Spivak and Spiegel's lap band patients. Small world. (And who also recently went to Thailand and stayed in the same hotel I was in!)

(Can you tell I'm back?...can't seem to condense my thoughts into a single posting.... Typical.)

Anyway, if anyone needs a new chiro, I love this guy....and I think somewhere he has a $200 off deal if I refer you, and I get $25.....so let me know if you want me to dig up that discount card.....

I'll come next week. I just had a bad time eating fish at Cedars Landing. I got a little PB action. This is the second time:( Glad you are getting back to your old self. Don't overdo Tai Chi till your sure. Sounds like you have a great connection with the Chiro.

My friend and I were going to go to Thai Chi tonight but she has rh. arth. and her back is really bothering her so I guess I will wait and go next week with the rest of you! The lady I talked to at the May Center said the 6:30 class would be better for those of us that are beginners and a true beginners class will start in August.

Great Cyndie! This will be fun and free! Are you still cowgirl shooting or dressing:)? I'm the one that my husband was wanting to join SASS.

Glad you are able to take advantage of the "free" classes. Just my luck you send me to one that costs! I signed up for 3 months so I'm out another 250. I'm enjoying them sorta of so I'll stick with it for the summer. :(

Now that y'all are taking Tai Chi at 6:30 when are we getting together for dinner. I go to Tai Chi M,W until 6 and I guess y'all go at 6:30. Guess we should pick another night for dinner. Next week is our regular time to meet so let me know what we're doing.

Today is my 1 year bandanniversary. I'm down 60 lbs, down from size 24 to 18/16. I feel so much better. Hopefully I can lose another 50 lbs next year.

Glad you're doing better Betsy. Can your chiro get us a discount on plastic surgery? I need my arms done!

Tai Chi is only Wednesdays, so Monday still works for me for getting together...... Humble or Atascocita.

Congrats on your anniversary! What a huge difference in clothing size!

I'll ask about the arm surgery, but I doubt if there's a deal. They're trying to pay for their new house in Memorial......

Monday sounds good to me too for our get together. Sorry about finding out about free Tai Chi a little late in the game. Congrats from me too Barb on the success you are having with your banding! That new books says it takes 3 years to get the full weight loss, so I'm sure you'll get to your goal. Hope to see all Monday!

Hey Barbara---Sounds like Humble is more convenient than Huffman, but if not...why don't you ask if you can get your $ back.....or patial $. You'll never have to wear your jammies again.....

I'll stay with the Humble location for Tai Chi. I don't wear that uniform anymore so I'm liking it even better.

Monday at 6:15 Humble Inn works for me. Hope everyone can make it.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
