Default New to the board

Hi everyone. My name is Troy. I just mailed in my paperwork to Dr. Callery's office last Thursday and am hoping to go in for a consultation soon. I'm so excited to finally get this going.

Troy.

Default Welcome Troy

Welcome Troy!
Yes, this whole process is very exciting and the journey is amazing! Get ready, both physically and mentally. Get strong. Get healthy. Do whatever exercise you can. Try now to lower your intake of sugars and fats and any extraneous calories. Also, try to eliminate carbonation as soon as you are able. This way, you will establish new habits before the surgery. Ask any and all questions and we will try our best to answer them. I wish you all the best on your journey.

Troy,

Nice to have you with us!! It is definately a journey worth taking!! My name is karen and I live in Lemon Grove. I wanted to tell you about the East County Support group meeting in Santee. We meet the 3rd Wednesday of every month at 7pm in the Sonrise Church on Prospect. It is a great group of people and lots of support and information is found there. Also, several meetings at Dr. Callery's office too. They are a great way to put faces to names!

Any questions or concerns...just ask us!!

Thats great. Real close to my house. I guess the next meeting would be 5/19/03. Where at the church? Is it in the classrooms in the seperate building from the church? Let me know and I'll go for sure.

Troy.

Troy,

Just walk in the big front doors and look at the directory...it will say what room we are in. Sometimes we have to be moved to a diffrent room because of scheduling conflicts but we are always there somewhere! <LOL> And yes...the meeting is on the 19th this month. Looking forward to meeting you!
