CarlaG 0 Posted March 20, 2008 Zannie, I was also banded by Dr. T. He's such a cutey. When I told my husband about my weight loss, he said he would have to give me a new name. I asked him what would it be since he now calls me "Sweety". My new name is now "Sweety Petitee"! I thought that was so cute and the fact that he thought it up instantly is just amazing LOL :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cori in wa 0 Posted March 20, 2008 Bet that feels GREAT. Congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zannie 6 Posted March 20, 2008 I was also banded by Dr. T. He's such a cutey. I just love everyone at WLSC of HR -- especially Susie & Dr. T! He really gives it to you straight, but I've never felt judged at all for being super morbidly obese. There are a few other Bandsters from WLSC (probably more than few) who I've met here at LBT, too. Are you coming to the Support Group meeting tonight at 6:30 (it's down at the Careplex)? I hope to see you there! Suzanne Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CarlaG 0 Posted March 21, 2008 Suzanne, I was at the meeting. I saw you but was too chicken to say anything. I was sitting in the front row in the pink sweater. :embaressed_smile: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LiseSeattle 0 Posted March 22, 2008 wow - and in 6 days - that's fantastic! it's taken me over 2 weeks to lose that much!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zannie 6 Posted March 22, 2008 I was at the meeting. I saw you but was too chicken to say anything. I was sitting in the front row in the pink sweater. Ha! I wondered if that was you -- 2 rows directly in front of me! :cheers2: There are so many new faces now that the support group follows the nutrition class... You should have said hello! Next time... :smile: Actually, I probably won't be AT the fashion show one...my parents sit the kiddies for me to go to support group since my husband works Thurs nights & I feel guilty asking them to pull over-night duty for me to play play. But definitely introduce yourself! Suzanne Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
