That was pretty funny... and amazing. As for east Texas... my in-laws still live there, and I got married in their house on the Sabine river... in Joaquin, Texas... the county (Shelby) clerk who signed our marriage certificate was named Peaches Conway -- no kidding! fotfl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are the drawbacks? >> First of all, welcome to the group. Second, please consider stopping the DesOwen. This is a steroid medication. While it is okay to occasionally use cortisone or other steroid creams for allergic reactions to plants and such, it is NOT okay to use it continually for a progressive, chronic disorder such as rosacea. DesOwen, if used for long periods of time, can thin the skin, making flushing and redness more obvious and causing damage to the skin in the long run. I don't mean to scare you, but I am always shocked at how readily dermatologists dispense this without considering the long term effects.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2001 Report Share Posted January 10, 2001 hi sharon - welcome. there is a site where you can calculate your bmi (body mass index) . i can't recall it off hand but am sure someone on here can come up with it for you. good luck. maura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 10, 2001 Report Share Posted January 10, 2001 Sharon When I had my consultation I was 5'4 " and 236 lbs. I think I was over 240 at time of surgery due to all the " last meal pigging out I did " . Still that said I just got in with the bmi. I think it was 41. something when last checked before surgery. I am now at 138 lbs .. and trying to lose the last bit .. I'd like to get to 130 but I'd be happy with 135. My lowest weight was 132 and then I slacked off doing the things I was supposed to be doing & put on 10 lbs .. now I'm going back down in the right direction again. Remember surgery is only a tool for as long as you use it! I plan on using it right!!! I don't know about your ins. I had ppo type ins. They approved within 24 hours verbally & within 7 days in writing. I had my surgery 3 weeks to the day of my consultation & I have no regrets. Yes you can have children after the surgery. They suggest waiting 1-2 yrs for the rapid weight phase of your life to be over ... because during a pregnancy you do have to make sure you are stable weight wise, nutrition wise, health wise for the baby .. although I do know one or two people who had an OOPS before that time frame and still managed to have healthy babies they just had close supervision with their docs.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 Welcome to our humble group. Nothing but religion and politics are off limit. No question is to stupid or to off the wall for us. lol I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't found this group. We're great for a shoulder to lean on or cry on, and also good for a great laugh. Everyone needs a good laugh every once in awhile. I'm , I have OA, HPB, Fibro, some weird neuro problems that we're working on right now among other things. I've been married to for 16 years, have two kids, is 24, a is 22 married and has the sweetest lil grandbaby named Zaiden. We live in Oklahoma, very near a beautiful lake and are out in the woods. I love it. I just got in from feeding all our critters. We have 7 dogs, 5 cats, a turtle, we also have numerous bird feeders for the birds, squirrels, chipmunks, and deer. It doesn't take to long to make the route on the 4 wheeler pulling a trailer loaded with the feed. lol I don't feel like doing it every day so it makes it special when I feel like doing it.

Guest guest Posted November 14, 2009 Report Share Posted November 14, 2009 Subject: New memberTo: IntuitiveEating_Support Date: Saturday, November 14, 2009, 11:52 AM (copied from email to moderators)Dear Gillian and Group,I found your group via Huffpo which linked an interesting piece on eating as addictive behavior to an online rag called Psych Central. There were numerous dieting type support groups listed and yours stood apart. I don't have a particular story to share other than I have a tendency to make poor food choices. I came to you for your expertise in learning to make the right choices.Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
