Central Ont Bandster Lunch get-together???



Recommended Posts

Hello Bandster Friends;

I tried to post this on the TLBC message board but had no luck... so here goes.

ANYONE banded (or soon to be) that would like to get together for a Lunch/Support get-to-gether ???? Please POST here or PM me for my phone number...

I am thinking of all of us folks NORTH of the GTA... Owen Sound, Midland, Barrie, Orillia, Gravenhurst, Huntsville, Alliston..... yada,yada.. you get the idea..

Anyways, I have gone to several luncheons in Toronto and met some fabulous folks... but it's one heck of a drive...

So I was thinking of meeting mid-way point either Barrie or Orillia....

Come back to me folks.

If it was a bit more north I'd consider it but I'm still 4 hours from Orillia. I usually organize one in North Bay twice a year so if anyone closer to North Bay area is interested, I'll be posting once we set a date. It will most likely be July since I'm having surgery in 2 weeks.

Sorry Fousilly, that its 4 hrs for you.... let me wait and see who else responds.... ( I myself am 1 hour from Orillia) perhaps something else might work out..

Keep checking this THREAD:thumbup:

I'll keep checking peaches. We have quite a few near North Bay now so that's why we pick there. Up to 12 or so now I think so it's always a good size turnout.

That is a great turn out!!! If darn gas wasn't such a premium right now, I may even try to drop in on your North Bay lunch bunch sometime.

Peaches I PM'd you and said that date would suck for me. I don't mind driving more north. I am in Haliburton, maybe 1 & 1/2 hour drive to north bay.maybe change venues and see what happens.

        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
