Kaiser Richmond Pre-op

[momcof3 1]

Well, I heard back from Dr. Im - he said sorry his schedule is pretty packed. So I guess I have to wait until Oct. 9. doesn't make me happy.

Ugh, sorry Pam! Can you call the office and tell them that you are miserable, this is affecting your mental state, and maybe get on a list to be called if he has any cancellations?

I had such good restriction - I honestly was not hungry at all until a dew days ago. Now I am starving all of the time, and I can eat like 4 cups at a time! I have cut out carbs too, but am doing my "gain a bunch of Water weight right before you go weigh in" thing anyways, dagnabit! I will be VERY happy to get a fill Thursday! This is the closest I have ever been between the time that I felt I needed one and I get to have one, though - last time Dr. Baggs told me to call and schedule a fill, I had to wait almost a month! Of course I gained weight back during that time . . . . .

UGH I am starving right NOW! Good thing it's lunch time!

I will miss seeing you guys on Saturday - but don't feel sorry for me, I'll be in beautiful Lake Tahoe with Team Thrive!!!!:bored:

(Note sure what your first name is sorry)Sorry to hear you are so hungry but from reading other posts it sounds like you have really also been working out so that could have something to do with it. You responded to me when I first joined in August that there was a support group in Santa Rosa. Is there a way we can email each other - not quite sure how it works on the site. I accepted you as a friend so don't know if that give us access to each other's emails. Anyway any info you have on anything in Sonoma or Marin county would help. I also plan to try to get to the group in Richmond but not sure I'll be able to do that more than once a month.

Thanks for your help,

I'll be there Saturday! I'd love to go walking but we'll see. I may be going to a wedding, so I might be dolled up for the meeting. I'm going to Crossroads Trading Co. before the meeting to try & sell my favorite coat and a dress. I paid so much money for them and no one at the meeting is in that size. If they won't buy my dress and coat I'm bringing them to the exchange. I'm a little sad to be parting with my cute clothes. (Nicole knows what I mean!)

Tina- Every item of clothing I got from you is super cute. I get compliments on everything!

Riley- Can I get one of those cookbooks? Is there a website to order one or can I give you a check?
