New email address.......Sorry it's been a long time....

This is Sandy Pierce from the former imnotfatanymore.com website.  I am now working on another website.  As soon as it's up I will get the word out.  My new email address is [email protected] .  Feel free to contact me anytime day or night.  I am here to help post ops having problems, people considering surgery, or people just needing friends. Have a Happy 4th of July. Sandy Pierce

Sandy, It is so good to hear from you...Your story is the reason  I said no to RNY and opted for lapband...I couldn't be happier with my decision--I'm 16 months post op and down 120 lbs...life is great...hope all is good with you....Take care!   Theresa R.

Is this the Sandy from Cincinnati?  Wow it's been a long time.  What's this "say no to WLS" about? Sudy

Hi Sandy,  Nice to see you back. I have wondered about you since your last post. Hopefully all of the surgeries are behind you and you are doing better! I wish that you weren't using the SAYNOTOWLS handle. Not everyone has the same problems as you did and I worry that the name may scare others away from this life saving surgery. Hopefully surgeries have improved over the past few years and some of the issues that you encountered will no longer be a problem for others. Not bashing you here,  just stating my personal opinion. WLS was the best thing that I ever did for myself and although I did have a few problems, the rewards of being healthier and active have far outweighed them. I truly understand the problems that you faced and I applaud your decision to take control of your life in the way that you did.  Best wishes, Cathy

Hi Sandy, I remember you from many years ago...glad to see you bad. I hope things have gotten better for you.
