HEllo everyone!
Thank you all for your prayers and positive thoughts you sent my way.
Shanna told me about the clothing exhcnage and was glad to hear that one was set up in Janurary. Thanks Tracy for hosting it!
I am still dealing with headaches but it is getting better each week. I posted what happened on my facebook if you are interested in reading it.
I get to see my neuro tomorrow I am hoping to get on another type of pain meds. darvaset makes the room spin around to much.
Hope all is well with everyone and will get the next date for clothing exchange soon.

What a surprise at the clothing exchange. I was simply blessed by the generosity of you guys. I loved everthing that I received. I wasn't even expecting it. So from the bottom of my heart I thank each of you!!!!
Robin

I am going to have to ask. If you are sick with the flu to please do consider others when deciding to come. Maybe I am sounding a little selfish. but I am trying to do everything I can to not catch this bug. There are also others who do not want it either.
Please don't take this the wrong way. I still have love for all of you sick people just want to love from afar :)
I will have sanatizer on hand for everyone to use!!!!!
Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow!!!!!
Hugs
Robin

Clothing exchange and pitch in
October 24,2009
11:00am - 3:00pm
Calvary Chapel on the Horizon.

Please bring gently used clothing and a bariatric friendly dish.
Clothes need to be prewashed with no stains or holes.
Food needs to be bariatric friendly meaning no doughnuts or things we are not allowed to have. If you would like to bring water or paper plates and such let me know these are stables that need to be there. Sometimes we don't have any and I want to make sure this time those items are at least covered.
Its a time to come together and have fun. All are welcome you need not to have had the surgery. For those that are pre op this is a time you can meet some of us who have had the surgery and ask your questions. For those of us who have had surgery its a time to come together and get some new clothes and have fun watching each other shrink.
We do have a 15 minute rule. Since this is geared toward people who have had surgery we allow those people to go in first and shop for clothes then all others can follow after 15 minutes.
Our church lets us hold this free of charge. We do ask that you bring non perishable food items to give to our food pantry. I think its a the least we can do for what the church has done for us for now over a year!
If you have any questions ask away. there are plenty of people here who have been to alot of exchanges and can help with any questions.
Our biggest exchange since I have hosted it was like 70 people. I want to try to break this record. So start planning!

We live in Plainfield! Great town. small town feel but we have a mall, super park system, Our aquatic center is the best with indoor and outdoor swimming area with slides. Each park is connected by walking trails.

Melissa,
Funny you say that. I was cold all the time. But now that I have my own little furnace I keep pretty comfortable. Not cold but not hot either. SO ladies if you want some warmth you can make your own little furnace like melissa and I did :)
Robin

Congrats Melissa! So what are you hoping for!
Robin

I actually only waited a year before I was pregnant. I didn't want to wait the two years they suggest because I would be out of the honeymoon stage and I didn't want to go through gaining a bunch of baby weight. I am currently 20 weeks along and have only gained 3 pounds. I feel like this is my healthiest pregnancy. The baby is right on target as far as size. I am feeling pretty good, but I don't have alot of energy but I have heard its that way when you are older and pregnant. I am currently 33 so this pregnancy is a little more energy zapping.
Robin

Oh boy another girl!!! I still can't believe its going to be a girl I was really hoping for a boy as some of you know. I guess I can still hold out on the fact she could be wrong. I am still very thankful she is healthy and look on the brighter side, I can start keeping things from Reagan to hand off to her....

Robin

Some of you already know but wanted to tell the rest of you. I am 11 weeks 5 days. I went to my first appointment yesterday and saw a heartbeat! I am getting a little more excited then I was. We are hoping for a boy, But would be content with another girl.
Robin

Big hugs to you Linda.
I have been thinking of you this week as mothers day drew closer. I know tomorrow is going to be hard for you. When I found you had made plans I was so happy because the worst thing you could do is stay home. Getting out tomorrow is the best thing for you right now.
Robin

Glad to see you post!!!!
Thank you for updating us about you and Emil.
Hope to see you soon
Robin

Thanks
Robin

When you guys get up does it go black then slowly the world comes back.
I have been dealing with this since surgery. Is it a Vitamin that needs uping. I have an appointment with Dr Inman in June but would like to start fixing it now. It is really bothersome today. The blackness isn't going away quickly enough for me. So have any of you experienced it and what are you doing to get rid of it.
Thanks
Robin

Please bring gently used clean clothing with no stains or rips.
Also bring your favorite bariatric friendly dish.
Our church lets us hold this function free of charge for us. As a thankyou we ask that you bring a bag of non perishable food item to help us stock the food pantry. Our pantry is very low so this would be a huge blessing.
Thanks
Robin
