Thank you for your help

No, Carrie's group has both band and bypass members.  Give her a call - she's awesome!

Yes there is a meeting in Clayton ~~ the Downstate Downsizers! You were right!  Here is the leader's name, email and phone number - I believe her meetings are the third tuesday of the month at her home.  Good luck!

I just had my RNY last Tuesday, and it's funny because I only had to be on clear liquids two days prior, but on those days, I felt like I was going to flip out.  I thought, "what the hell am I doing"....  I didn't think t hat I could go through with it... but actually i just told myself that I made it this far... I can complete this to get healthy. 

It was funny because while i was in the hospital i still watched the food channel (my fave), but this time I kept thinking... is that really a good choice?  how can I change that recipe to make it more to my lifestyle change.   I'm not sorry.  A friend who had it done five years ago told me that at some time right after her surgery , she wanted a piece of pizza in the worst way.. she even cried and asked if she did the right thing... She has no regrets and has been my biggest inspiration. I also have a friend who came to see me that night of surgery and she told me that I will be able to eat things again, but it is just going to take some time.  I know that I will be able to eat the foods I love, but just in moderationa and just not right now.... Good luck to you.

.Do you know where it is and what days? Thank youDawn
