Just a quick note to say hi, from a non-lap banded supporter. I went to Las Vegas last weekend with Penni Merrick, and enjoyed meeting you all. Please feel free to e-mail me and/or keep in touch. Continued good luck to you all. John M.

Hi John...I enjoyed meeting you as well. You nad Penni have such a great relationship. I can see & feel the love you have for eachother. You were very kind to all of us. It was nice getting to know both you and Penni..since we are so close maybe my husband and I can get together with you and Penni sometime.Thanks for your business card. I checked out your web site in great length and I was very impressed. My boys also looked at it, their dad bought them an electric guitar and amp this weekend while I was in Vegas..I shared your site with them and told them I met a real life rock star this weekend :) They thought it was so cool!

Where is Mr. M's avatar? John, you even put a smile on Chris's face. Between you playing guitar and all those presents Penni gave him from Jamaica, it was like he was having his own Bash!

Very nice meeting you also, John! I'm just sorry I missed the show. :) I do hope we can all get together again in the not too distant future!

Thanks for putting up with us!

Hi again. It was very nice to meet you. You and Penni are an awesome couple and you each have individual talents that are priceless.

I also checked out your website and it was great. Thanks for the card and I will be sure to pass your information on.

Thanks also for putting up with "all the women" this past weekend and chaffeuring us back to the hotel after waiting over an hour for the cab.

Keep in touch and if you two make it up to see Vera, you'd better stop by my house too!!

Thanks again, to all of you. You certainly are a friendly bunch! I'm sure we'll all see each other again before too long. I look forward to it. And as for, "missing the show," such as it was,... there will be other opportunities for that too. Promise.

John M.

Hey John!

I too loved your music and we were thrilled to have met you. I didn't get one of your cards though...(POUT) I knew I should have gotten an autograph while it was possible. LOL... You and Penni are wonderful and I am so glad you came to the event with her. Thank you for dragging us around (we were entirely too fearful of the Vegas traffic) and thank you for being great Breakfast companions. Keep in touch and best wishes to you. Teresa:)

Yes, Penni, now I'm happy. If he's gonna post, he's gotta be smiling at us.
I agree. He didn't want a pic posted at first then I got his password and posted it anyway. LOLOL!!!

I miss all you guys.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
