Guest guest Posted January 26, 2001 Report Share Posted January 26, 2001 Hi Lori! I'm a Lori, too! And I had surgery with Dr. Thayer 11/99! Groovy! You'll enjoy this list. I'm going through my mail after being away for a week. If you haven't done so already, tell us more about yourself! I'm down 186 pounds, from 421 to 235, thanks to the good doc, taking care of myself, support from this list/friends/family, etc. I live in Salem, NH and attend the NWH meetings frequently. Will you be attending Feb 1st? Congrats on your date! Lori H. Hello, I'm a new member. > Hello, my name is Lori. I am having surgery on April 2,2001 atNewton-Wellsley Hospital.

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2001 Report Share Posted January 26, 2001 Hi Lori, Very nice name by the way...lol. No, actually I didn't tell much about myself. I will now. I am 30 years old, been married to my husband for 11 years, we have 2 sons who are going to be 9 & 11 in March. Also have 2 cats. I have always had a weight problem but never as bad as it is now. Was mostly in the 200's but now I am over 400. Very depressing. After doing all the Weight Watchers, Diet Workshop, Slimfast etc....my doctor suggested this surgery to me back in August. At first I wasn't too sure, but the more I read about it, the more I was all for it. Now I can't wait to have it. I will be at next weeks meeting with my buddy Thurston. Lori B. Hi Lori!

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2001 Report Share Posted January 26, 2001 STOP IT!!!!!! My hubby's name is, guess what, PETER! We used to have 2 cats! And I used to have webtv. And, uh, I USED to be over 400 lbs. Let's see....what else do we have in common? Er...you don't scrapbook, do ya? What town are you in again? You're having a nametag made, right? Do that, so I can find you and rule out that you are my exact double. Of course, if you ARE my exact double, I suppose I wouldn't need a nametag to recognize you, huh? I've always been very heavy. Now, at 235 and 32 yrs old, I'm way lighter than I used to be in high school! It's an amazing thing. When it was first recommended to me a few years ago, I freaked. I was seeing an endochrinologist because my weightloss has stopped all together after losing 60 pounds. Here was this excellent doctor who's oppinions I valued and who listened to me and understood my problem, telling me I should consider this radical surgery. It wasn't until one of my other 2 sisters who had the surgery started looking into it that I researched the hell out of the procedure(s) and realized it was something to consider. Lori H.
