Hi   I just found this forum  and am disappointed in not much written...
 I thought it would be buzzing with actitivaty I cannt type today...  anyway I will keep checking back  now that most schools has started maybe it will pick up...   some on the boards  I have seen just isnt what I am looking for...  hoping this will be some sound good advice and chatter..  prayers  sis harmon 

I just found this board while on the gay and lesbian board. Don't start with me about it, some of my best friends are gay. They were talking about updates on forums and how OH was starting more religious forums. Boy, was I shoucked when I saw one for us. I will stop more often now that I know we are here.

I came here on a fluke and guess what....it has been forever since people have posted. Are we all so busy with callings that we can't come to the board for support? I just got back to work again after a nice summer break. We went to Alaska and it was wonderful I had a ball and including a "aip line advernture in Juneau, I can't believe my lifestyle after 7 years. Yes...it has been 7 years since my WLS. I'm trying to figure out to change my picture, but can't seem to make it work....any hints? Well back to planning lessons. Blessings to all

Hi Kerry Glad you found us! Laurie

Hi Lithia! Holy Cow! I"d better start living a cleaner life if I'm unable to "show" that I"m LDS! *winks* I'm very sorry about the loss of your mother Lithia! Losing a parent definitely takes the wind out of our sails and gives us pause to redirect our lives. I'm sure your "mum" would be so proud of your efforts towards better health and a higher quality of life. No need to wait to post until you get your date! The AZ forum is VERY supportive of pre-ops. In fact, having a group of mentors (aka angels) is a MUST!!!! ..... My Distal is indeed working for me so far....and working, and working and.....well....lots of trips to the potty during my recovery phase! That's typical of the first few weeks and forever after if the wrong foods are eaten. I had a half of a cheeseburger last night and thought I would die before I could finally get rid of the tight tummy and tight chest feeling! .... I'm within pounds of my first goal weight though so will consider a shopping trip before long! LOL! .... My boss may get tired of seeing me in baggy clothes! Good luck with your WLS journey and keep in touch!!! Joyce
