A few things

[Guest guest]

Hi everybody,

>Well, since i only receive the digest version once or twice a day

>I missed out on all the action

Dear Jessie,

I thought that in the digest version you received all the messages

together, in one post. How come you miss things ? - even though

there are things you better miss ... :-) Does that mean that you

don't receive all the messages, or that they are not complete ???

Also, sometimes you seem to answer to one person in particular, without

mentioning his/her name nor quoting him/her. Rather hard to follow or

retrieve the message you're replying. Someone else does that too

(don't remember who). Perhaps you see things differently in the

digest version.

>The only thing I wish people had told me before the surgery

>is that you really can't eat after the surgery. At least I can't.

I feel the exact contrary. I can eat much more than I had been

told.

>Tits flopping in the sun

LOL Debie, I like your new way of signing :-))))))

>They say what's the point in losing all that weight by WLS

>if I will gaining it 5 years later because of PO ?

Dear Dorit,

Go get this operation, because YOU know what's good for you, and then

fight for the insurance to cover it. I must admit that I haven't

understood all that was said about PO. Too technical for my poor

English. But still I don't get their point. In five years so

many things can happen, in terms of health, to an obese person. Are

they not afraid of paying even more for you in the future because of

your weight ? Don't be too discouraged. You will find a way to

sort out this problem, I'm sure.

I think of you and wish you all the best.

>I have been trying to diet for the last month and gained two kilos.

>Can't wait to get banded.

Dear Syd,

I can't remember when your B-day is. Is it scheduled yet ?

>Naaaaa don't think so - not gettin in the middle of a catfight!

>Just sittin on the sidelines lurkin! Ken

aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh men !!!!! ... *long long

sigh* :-)

>I have some wonderful news. I just talked to Molly, she is now on the

>other side and another official bandsters member! She sounded great

and

>is in good spirits.

Dear Kim,

Thank you for your good news about Molly ! Good to hear that she's

OK.

Lots of love,
