CHRISTIAN WLS SUPPORT

HELLO TO ALL, I AM CHEROKEE, CHOCTAW & BLACKFOOT & VERY PROUD OF MY HERITAGE. IT HAS BEEN CHALLENGING GIVING UP THE FRY BREAD I HAVE AN ON LINE SUPPORT GROUP http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/ChristianWLSJourney/ & I AM TRAINING THROUGH OH TO DO A LOCAL IN PERSON SUPPORT GROUP IN IDAHO. I THOUGHT THAT I'D SAY HI. GOD BLESS, LORIANN

Hey Loriann, Good to have you join us!! Good luck on your site and your training! That sounds awesome!! We seem to be operating on Indian time here, but I think we are building up steam, and things will get more active. Take Care, Cathy

OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! NOBODY TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO GIVE UP FRY BREAD!!!!!!!!!! Once we are post op will I still be able to have Deer, Caribou, and Moose?? What about seal oil???? Beluga??? Man THIS COULD BE A SERIOUS DOWNSIDE??? Stink Fish won't be a problem for me to give up (never had it or seen it and NEVER WILL if I have any say to it), but the others????? Somebody help me here!!! Cathy

I guess it really depends on the type of surgery you have. I had lap band so I can only speak for that...... I'm not planning on giving up fry bread........I just won't have as much of it or maybe as often. NO way could I give it up forever!! No indin tacos????

Cathy, I have never visited this board before. I saw your last name and said I know a Heckman that went to Mt. Edgecombe. So how do you get your Yu'pik food down here from home? I thought about ordering fish and having it sent down here but I'm afraid of the cost. I also live in NC (originally from Metlakatla). Anyway, I have tried fried bread. I ate a very small porton of it and did fine. You have to eat in moderation instead of like I used too (3 pieces). I hope all is well with you!
