SWO Meet Up and my Update

We were a very small group this time, and I was ridiculously late and foolish - going to the wrong location, duh! But...it was wonderful to catch up. Cathy Crocker, Debbie Nero, Bev Jensen, Mary Grierson, Ruth (from Barrie) and I chatted and shared notes on our successes and challenges. I missed my darling Kelty Lee but I hope to do a one-on-one with you soon, my friend.

We missed Alison Davies, our newbie who's grandmother is ill, Barbara Hadley who works too darn hard and Maryann Barnett who… Continue

Onederland

I was really trying to have a picture of the scale so I could show you but I can't find my camera. I even painted happy faces on my toe nails!

I am weighing in at 197.5! That's 65.5 pounds gone since August 29th! I am wearing a size 16 pants and 14 tops. How cool is that?!

I feel great - work out at Curves and have started a weekly yoga class. Physical activity is so much easier now and fun too. I walk much quicker and just feel smaller in my space. I can eat most anything but still focus on t… Continue

MGB Retreat

Hi all - sorry I've been so quiet (read busy and distracted) lately. I really must post to tell you how wonderful the MGB Retreat experience was last week.

I traveled with the lovely Mary Grierson - quite a risk taker coming away with me for a week. We had only met live twice and both times we really did not spend much time together. The good news is we got along wonderfully (I hope she concurs!). The other Canadian in attendance was Barbara Hadley - I'm so glad to have had a chance to get to k… Continue

Good Bye 2008 and Fat Ellen

I have done my last official weigh-in for this year - I'm heading off to my cottage for New Year's Eve and there's no scale up there! I'm pleased with the results.

I started the process at 276 - surgery I was 263 and today I weigh 208.5! Isn't that wonderful - I'll be in Onederland by Valentines Day, I predict.

My best wishes to everyone for a wonderful New Years Eve and peaceful, happy, prosperous and healthy 2009!

Happy Holidays to You, My Dear MGB Family

May you all have a wonderful and peaceful time this year at Christmas and New Years. When I count my blessings I will count each one of you who have helped me on this journey.

Warmly, Ellen

At 5:20pm on February 5, 2009, Donna Hawkins said…: Hi Ellen,
My name is Donna Hawkins. I'm looking for contacts for my packet. Sandy at the clinic told me that there was some sort of contact list, but I have not been able to find it, so I thought I would just pick some members out and try it that way. If you are willing to help me out, I would surely appreciate it. If you decide to write me back, you can e-mail me at
aerolioness@yahoo.com
My tentative surgery date is March 11th, so I'm really trying to get this all together.
I was going to try to add an attachment here, but I'm not sure how to do that, so I'll just add the questions:
1. When did you have your MGB surgery?
2. What was your PreOp Weight?
3. What is your weight now?
4. What has been the worst thing about your MGB experience?
5. What has been the best thing your MGB experience?
6. Did you have your surgery in Nevada or Florida, and what did you think of the Dr.?
7. How would you rate the level of care that you received at the hospital?
8. How would you rate the responsiveness of the Clinic regarding pre-op questions/concerns?
9. Would you recommend this surgery to your friends or family members?
10. What is the one most important bit of advice that you would like to pass on to anyone that is getting ready to have the MGB?

If you have the time to answer the questions for me, I thank you. If you don't, I understand.
Futur MGBr
