Topic: RE: Got an appt with Dr. Keshishian...!!!
Wooo Hoooo Lisa!
Tell Talin that I said hello and give Dr. K a big hug from me and be sure you grab a bite at the lil Chinese across from the hospital and tell Micky M hello and be sure you sit by the ocean for at least an hour and meditate and be sure you fill up with gas at the Costco on the East side of L.A. just before hitting the desert and and and.....ENJOY the trip! I'm jealous! Maybe we can unite for a road trip for a post-op check in the future!
Do you know how awesome that DS is going to rock your world??!!!!
Oh and be sure and go to his website and study all of his newsletters, research, and his " DS Bible"....he has the most amazing collection of info I have found ANYWHERE!!!
Is that Friday the 2nd? It's GOOD Friday!!!

and I feel so much better!! I drank milk and ate cream of mushroom soup and kept both down and had no pain while eating/drinking them!! Dr. Pod says 2 more dialations and I should be good!
Topic: Got an appt with Dr. Keshishian...!!!
OK, I am back on track and focused, pity party is OVER!!!
I called and made an appointment with Dr. Keshishian in California next Friday. I get an hour and a half to discuss everything about the DS surgery and I am so excited. It was a struggle to fenagle (sp?) the kids' schedules, but my husband has been quite helpful and supportive and he figured it all out so I can focus on me.
I will keep you all posted as my journey progresses! -Lisa

Topic: OT: Best Seafood
I've got family in town this week and we're wanting to have some great seafood for one of our outings.
Which is your favorite seafood restaurant? What have you ordered there that you've liked?
I LOVE seafood enchiladas and fish tacos at the Gecko Grill in Gilbert but my family doesn't like mixing Mexican flavors with their seafood
(price info is welcome as well
)
Oh, and has anyone done the "all you can eat crab/seafood" at any of the Casino's? My hubby and I couldn't get our moneys worth there with our tiny bites but the others would love a good pigging out! What did you think?
Thanks!!!

Topic: RE: Support Group Info for 2010
check out: http://tricitywls.com/ This Prescott Valley group totally rocks
I know Prescott is quite a drive from Payson but when I've visited that group, they've had folks there from Payson and all over the region! It's a smokin group; complete with their own wholesale protein set-up, a cool website and officers! They are committed to lifetime health!
I know there are oodles of folks from Payson. Let me know if you'd like to start a group and I can help walk you through setting it up!
Phoenix isn't that far away though and the big events would definitely be worth the drive to the valley!
Support is key to lifetime success!!!
Let us know how we can help support you on-line!
