Evilah 1 Posted May 14, 2007 lisah are you going to a support group there? evilah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisah25 3 Posted May 15, 2007 Not very often. I know they have them once a month, and I've been to a few, but I always seem to end up with a conflict. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShellMarr 0 Posted May 16, 2007 I WILL be banded at NWWLS hopefully in June!! I just went to my 2nd seminar last night w/Michaelson, my hubby came with me just in case he had any questions that I had not thought of. And he did I go to NWWLS on Mon, 21st & Wed, 23rd...... I PLAN on going to the support group meeting on June 11th @ 7pm in Everett. I live in West Seattle (Alki), so if there are any others who have or want to have a group in that area at a later date I'm all for it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hisuzi 0 Posted May 17, 2007 I am in Woodinville and was banded on Thursday 5/10. So far all is well except for the gas pains in my left shoulder which come and go. I am so excited about the band and can't wait to see the results in the months to come. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evilah 1 Posted May 17, 2007 hisuzi, how are you doing with your post op diet? Evilah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hisuzi 0 Posted May 17, 2007 Hi Evilah, The liquid diet is going ok for the most part. I have been mostly drinking Costco's chocolate Weightloss shakes (a Slimfast type drink), drinkable yogurt (also from Costco), and Tomato Soup simply because they are easiest. Today I had a little apple sauce which was fine. I haven't had any issues with being really hungry but am ready to start exploring more food options. You must be rally excited that your surgery is almost here. I am excited for you. Just think how different life will be this time next year. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
