Guest guest Posted April 6, 2005 Report Share Posted April 6, 2005 Cole- You've been such a joy! You don't have to leave the group, although I imagine it will be hard to find the time. Please do pop in to say hello on occasion. Or just stay if you'd like! You don't have to have a " connection " -- your interest in CHARGE is enough! In any case-- good luck to you. I've enjoyed knowing you and will miss your input. Michele W > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 6, 2005 Report Share Posted April 6, 2005 Cole, You don't have to leave the group if you don't want to at all.... if you want me to change your subscription, however, just give me a shout, we'll be sorry to see you go if you do.

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 CONGRATS.... The best thing you'll ever do.... I am only 16 days post op and feel better than I have in a LONG time. I researched for two years before feeling like I was " giving " in to having surgery. I'm sooo glad that I did. I am going bike riding with my kids this morning for the first time EVER!!! Even with only 39 pounds gone since my initial consult I feel GREAT! Please don't hesitate to seek advice when needed, this group has been great to me in my quest to make the big jump. Congrats to you!!! Carmen > > Hello everyone! After gathering information, both good and bad i've > decided to take the first step of my journey. i have my first > consultation on the 17th!

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 i'll admit, i'm a little nervous. Major surgery, a new person afterward. Little scary. But you're right, this group has been great! Thank you! > > > > Hello everyone! After gathering information, both good and bad i've > > decided to take the first step of my journey. i have my first > > consultation on the 17th!

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 I am happy for you. It's not my place to advise someone to undergo WLS but when they make the decision I love to encourage them to brave the journey, It's the best thing I ever did! Please let us know how we can help you! Robyn > > Hello everyone!
