Guest guest Posted May 16, 2000 Report Share Posted May 16, 2000 , it's great to see you doing so well. Wow, 60lbs, that is a lot!! I was also raised to be a member of the " clean plate club " and often was severely punished if I left food on my plate. Of course these days my mom realizes what she did, but she can't change things now. But hopefully with surgery I can attain a normal way of eating. Please keep us posted on your progress. Not sure if clinic will be offered on the 27th.....Dr R will be gone and they don't do Saturday clinics anymore, they've been moved to Tuesdays. But please post when you will be in town, perhaps everyone who can will be able to meet you somewhere. < > fg At 02:05 PM 05/16/2000 -0000, you wrote: >Hi everyone >Here (in Iceland) everything is good.
