Hello! I'm having my surgery on Dec. 6, '06. I have done lots of reading and have discovered the need for a support group, or at least a mini group of 1 or 2 people. I am staioned in Bitburg and wondering if there is anyone around here that had/is having the surgery. Brenda

Hi!! Just found this forum today! Congrats on your upcoming surgery. How awesome for you! We are stationed in Wiesbaden. I have only been here since the end of Sept so trying to adjust. I had RNY 6/03. Have done pretty well but the last year has been tough and have had a regain of 18#. I am back on track and working hard on the "head hunger" I would love to be a "support" for you. Tell me all about your upcoming surgery. Where is it going to be? Hope to hear back soon. Take care Cheri

Brenda, I just had lap band surgery in Italy 15 dec 06. What surgery did you have and how are you doing? I'm in Heidelberg and my email is [email protected]. Let me know how you're doing. I expect to see Dr. Wiener early Feb. Maybe we'll meet? Lynnell in Heidelberg

Dear Lynell: I had the gartric bypass surgery 20 days ago. I am now doing OK. One of my incisions got infected and I had to return to see a doctor daily for the last week. Finally on Sunday, Dec. 24 the "hole" decided to close, no more bleeding and it's beginning to look much better. I general, I feel very good. I have lost 17 lbs already and food has not been a problem or an issue. I am stilll in liquids and puree until Jan. 10th that I return to Frankfurt to see Dr. Weiner. While I was in the hospital, another lady from Heildelburg was having the gastrict bypass surgery. (Hers was Dec. 7th) I don't remember her name but she worked in the I had a great roommate at the hospital, a lady from Weisbaden. It was wonderful to share this strange experience with someone else experiencing the same strange thing. How are you doing? Are you back at work already? I'm a teacher at the high school, so THANK GOD I don't return to wor****il Jan 8th!!! I don't think I have ever had 5 weeks off in the middle of the school year. My timing for this surgery was fabulous! Why was your surgery in Italy, since you are in Heidelberg? Just curious. Take care of yourself! Merry Christmas! brenda
