TODAY IS MY ANNIVERSARY!!!
Wow!!
I forgot until Eric Klein w/ ObesityHelp send me the sweetest anniversary note this morning!
OK, it was computer generated and Eric wouldn't know me if he fell over me, but it was the thought that counted!
Rough year - I am pounding the scales at about 225-230, and would LOVE to lose 10 pounds, BUT overall still THRILLED with my success with WLS and a big supporter of anyone that needs it - it saved my life for sure and I will forever be grateful to my amazing surgeon Dr. Eric DeMaria, who now heads up the Bariatric Dept at Duke University (not too shabby!)
Also- Thanks to all of you for your friendship and support over the past three years. I have made strong bonds I hope will last a life time.
Now - as for our next event...I hope to have news in the next few weeks...but plan to "take it on the road" a bit - for January 2008. Up front: not tons of "conference" time...perhaps even no vendors - BUT I think what I do have planned will BLOW YOU ALL AWAY and I hope I can make it happen!!! For now I am calling it my "MYSTERY TOUR: STAPLEDUP ON THE ROAD"...
Stay tuned friends
David
