Topic: RE: Pregnancy after Duodenal Switch
I really don't know anything about this so shouldn't even be offering a comment. There's a lady on the VSG board who's about 6 1/2 months pregnant. She and baby are doing extremely well. This probably doesn't mean a thing since you only mention RNY or DS and not VSG.

Topic: Pregnancy after Duodenal Switch
I am currently going for the Gastric Bypass but have wanted the Switch instead. My surgeon said if I want children after the surgery, it will be difficult to maintain the pregnancy with the Switch due to the nutrient loss. I have not found anything online agreeing with this. Does anyone have any idea about this? Please and Thank you!!

I'm not sure where it's at this week.  The crazy summer Saturdays are in full swing right now, might be a few weeks before I see you all.  Gotta enjoy the sunshine and daylight while we can, right? 

Have a good week everybody!

Sorry - I'm not going to be able to make it up there this time after all. I've got two shows tomorrow and have a couple errands I have to do in the morning before I head out for our matinee.  I'll plan on making the next one!

Butterfly, thank you for your brave and important post. You said you don't have much sobriety time yet. My hope for you is more and more sobriety. Bless you.

Topic: RE: Work pants on the cheap?
I was at Avenue this afternoon and they are having a HUGE 75% off sale incluing lots of jeans/pants and longer sleeve shirts for fall- pants/shirts for under $10.  If you're still in plus sizes, it's really worth heading over there while the selection is still good.

Thank you Jessica and Connie. 

@ Jessica - I am in Cambridge...and have lived in Isanti too.  Small world.  I think that is still the name of the Church out there.

Butterfly:  I applaud your courage in tackling your cross-addiction head-on.  I too, was told about the various types of cross-addictions that come up.  Clearly we are all addictive personalities to start with, and the surgery only works on the body, not the head or heart.   I'm very proud of you for addressing your alcoholism and working on sobriety!

Please stay in touch and let us support you in any way we can.  Are you in the Twin Cities?  If you are able, you are welcome to come to our Saturday morning coffee group--tomorrow we meet at the Panera Bread in Burnsville Center at 8:30am.  I plan to be there--anyone else?

Thanks again for the suggestions.

Today my favorite shorts stopped fitting, so I finally dug up a needle and thread and took the waist in a couple of inches.  Doesn't look to bad, if i do say so myself :)
