Guest guest Posted June 8, 2000 Report Share Posted June 8, 2000 Meghan, I don't know what it is but everyone get " it " . I was reduced to xanax and ativan while waiting. But, I operate at extremes, so I may be more anxious and impatient that most. All I can say is grit and bear.

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2000 Report Share Posted June 8, 2000 Dear Meghan: I love your name! That was going to be my daughter's name, but I have 3 sons! LOL We're similar in starting stats, I'm 32, start weight 280, 5'8 " and I had my MGB on May 22, 2000. I'm holding at 265, but it's that time of month, so I'm hoping to drop a few once this passes. I'd be happy to be a contact for you, but I'm only 2.5 weeks out, so you may want to get others that are further out. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them as best I can! If you'd prefer, you can call me at 703/876-9889. I'm on the East coast. Believe me, we all caught " MGB fever " during our wait. It becomes an obsession! Don't worry, it does pass (once you have your surgery!). Blessings, ~Amy. Message----- From: mnorton@... Sent: Thursday, June 08, 2000 8:14 AM To: MiniGastricBypass (AT) e Subject: Can't sleep! Ok, people, I'm new here, but what's the deal with being obsessed about MGB once you find out about it?! I can't sleep for being up all night reading every bit of info and posts and it's getting ridiculous! I sent in my Patient Information form the other day... so, I'm waiting, right? UGH! I need some serious shut-eye. FYI I am Meghan, age 29, weight 285, height 5'7 " , BMI 46. Hoping to go under Dr. R's knife (laparascope!), Meghan CONTACTS, Please!!

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2000 Report Share Posted June 8, 2000 Meghan: Trish never shut her eyes. As a result, she kept us awake all hours with her posts and on chat. It's just that it's so exciting. You can see that there is a possible solution to the biggest problem in your life...and that is exhilaration defined! Flo from land who also couldn't sleep but sure can now! MGB 5/31/00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
