Question for pre-ops/new post ops

As one of the "old gang" now since I'm 24 months post op I was wondering if you'd benefit from a "meet-n-greet" that would be mostly for you guys to do a question.answer session to some of the older by-pass paitents with any "real" curiousities that you may have about how things change when you're further out. This can include some of the plastic surgeries questions or the real "eating" issues that come about further out, exercise etc...sometimes actually hearing it from the horses mouth can make a difference in life. Give me your feed back and I'll figure out how we can hande this be it in a chat night or a dinner night or something. Thanks! Dee Dee

I think that's a great idea! I am 4 years post op scheduled to have a TT TODAY, YES TODAY IT WAS CANCELLED DUE TO low iron, anemia, and having trouble finding a competent WLS friendly PCP in Atlanta for post-op care, and could definitely share some stories with the newbies! tk

I would love it. I am in the process now and would even help with planning or anything needed. let me know!! Great Idea!

Great Idea Dee Dee, I for one think we dont utilize the chat feature of the GA board near enough. I think we could all benefit from scheduling open chats from time to time since we are all at different points in our journey we could definitely benefit from other members who have walked in our shoes. Btw, had a blast at Wild Bills last Saturday night! When we going back?? Hugs, Kelly S

well - when do we waant to go back.....maybe the 10th? What about after Rocky Horror? Did we make the final decision of the night we're going. The 23rd is the best night for me..... feed back hun! Dee Dee

Yeah maybe the 10th! As for Rocky Horror, it starts at midnight and isnt over until 2am; therefore we would be hardpressed to make it WB's by last call. So June 10th--WILD BILLS?? JUNE 23rd--ROCKY HORROR!!!! Hugs Kelly S

P.S. How do you get your profile pic to switch between 2 photos? I just uploaded a new pic, but dont know how to add the other one. Kelly S

I had Kara (Kia-m-Ski) do it for me. I'm certainly not talented enough to do that!

but Sherry - it's SUMMER.....and knowing it's coming up you could take a nap during the day and sleep late in the morning..... PLEASE???

a sleep over party....now THERE'S an Idea!!!!! Who's house would be big enough for all that? hmmmm......I'm thinking here....maybe we should all go find a cheap hotel for a day and use their pool and their rooms and party "teen age" style again!!!!! I don't think I'll ever grow up!
