Guest guest Posted August 12, 2000 Report Share Posted August 12, 2000 Wow , I didn't know that there were so many " BamaBabes " . That's nice to know. I haven't started my packet yet. I've been reading EVERYTHING I can about MGB for about 3 weeks on the website. Then I found this support group and have been lurking on it for a few days. It is very informative. My sister had a gastric bypass (the old fashioned way) last year and has lost 140lbs, but I just didn't want to go through all the pain and recovery that she had to endure. I believe though that I am ready for this procedure (it is an answer to my prayers). Tell about your experience and how you've done so far. Also, where are the other " Babes " located?

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2000 Report Share Posted August 12, 2000 I've got a ton of info on my website. It's just about done. I only started it on Thursday (so all of ya'll -- not you, Tuleta -- can stop pestering me for pictures, okay? I'm working as fast as I can!!) None of the other (recent) Babes are in Mobile but we are not the only folks from Bama. Look on Dr. R.'s website of post-ops, because I am sure there are a lot of other Alabama folks there, too. http://www.clos.net/email_patients.htm That list only has about 250 out of Dr. R.'s 700 patients, so it's not up to date but it'll give you a good start. Dinah's in Andalusia, Stormy's in Monroeville, Betsy is in Red Bay, I'm in Brundidge, and I can't for the life of me remember where Vicki and Kristy are from, but ask them -- they are here on the list (though Dinah is probably doing last minute stuff -- she's up next!)

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2000 Report Share Posted August 12, 2000 A " Cannuck " is a " Canadian " - I think the word came from the times when the Canadian hockey teams were playing the US and Russian hockey teams.........they had to call the Canadians something, so maybe they said something like " I za go- ink to knack yewr frickin haed off yew " dump canneck " - and maybe the US guys said something like " Yoo dude,.......I'll not be jiggin with ya my man,.....your nothin but a dumb cannuck! " . Anyway, I don't really know where it came from for sure, but I do think it came from Hockey - I'm originally from South Dakota - Yee Haa!! Ask your husband if he knows who Guy Lafluer, Bobby Ore, Tiger and Wayne Gretzke are.....maybe your husband has heard the term. I'll bet this really helped heh - or should I say eh! jan Re: Alabama >Jan, what is a cannuck? >Dinah in Bama > >I'm not a Bamababe, my husband reminded me it is also a " football " >thing!.
