July 2010 Update

Jul 08, 2010

Hello Everyone! I just wanted to give a quick update, espcially since I corrected my account to reflect that I had an RNY and not lap band and/or sleeve.  Not sure how the information changed.  I probably did it inadvertently and never even knew it until a couple days ago when I was looking at my account and profile.

I am almost three (3) years out.  Dr. Zorn performed my surgery on August 10, 2007.  My highest weight 286, My current weight fluctuates between 156 - 160 and my goal is 140. In December 2009, I have a tummy tuck, breast augmentation/lift and am doing very well. I love my plastic surgeon because he is patient and safety is number one with him.

I continue to facilitate my support group, OC WLS Support Group, on the 2nd Saturday of each month at 9:30 a.m. at the Kaiser located at 200 N. Lewis, Bldg. 1, Orange, CA 92868 (cross streets: Chapman and Lewis).  This meeting is for anyone who wants to attend whether or not pre-op, post-op or just thinking about losing weight. You do NOT have to be a Kaiser patient.  Also, the people who attend this support group are fun and we all learn from each other.

On July 16, 2010, I will have my left ear drum reconstructed due to infection and deterioration.  I should only be out of work for a couple of weeks and definitely plan to continue with my August Support Group.  The next support group meeting is Saturday, July 10, 2010.

Wishing everyone an amazing wls journey.  And for those who are not having wls or might be waiting then I am sending you best wishes in whatever decision you make.  Each person should make their own decision as to what they want to do relative to losing weight and/or maintaining weight because each person is unique and individual. Whatever decision you make is the right decision.

Hugs to All,
Terry
