Hello to all of you. I am Rosemary from Pa., had my suegery on 1/20 /06. I started back to work last year and have been really busy, but decided to drop by the site to try to catch up.
I am doing so wonderful,I thank GOD everyday for this opportunity for this surgery, it has saved my life.
I am down to my goal and holding for the last year and a half. I go up and down a few pounds but always stay within the few I want to stay at.
I feel wonderful, no complications and I am hardly ever sick, but I do watch sugar.
My daughter Heather had her surgery a year and a half after me and is also doing wonderful.
My daughters sister in law had the surgery last July and was a really bad dietabetic and has not had insulin since the day of surgery that is a miracle for her sinceshe was on 2 shots a day.
All of you look so wonderful, I still can't figure out how to put my picture on the site.
Good bless all of you, and if any of you are from around the area and know someone that is looking for a doctor, recommend Dr. Anita Coucoulas from Magee Womens Hospital, Pittsburgh, Pa.
Have a wonderful day!!!! Rosemary

Hello Everyone,
I know I don't come onto this board as much as I used to, been busy with work and countless other stuff.
I did want to share with you all that I am 26 weeks pregnant & expecting a baby girl. My fiance and I were shocked as I've not had a period for also 2 years due to my rapid weight lose. (TMI sorry) I decided to take a home test when my pants were getting tight and I gained 5 pounds. Low and behold I was pregnant 
The doctor said it was a miracle.I have to admit it was a shock at first but now everything seems to be coming together.
We have pushed our wedding out to the spring of 2010 as we want to focus on the baby first. We have chosen a name of: Madison Elizabeth
I will post some pics of myself once I can get Joe to take some. He's been busy remodeling our spare room for her.
I will try and pop in more, I promise.
Love you all,
Carly
