I missed my Dr appointment. Have another appointment on 12 dec . My Dr on Thanksgiving eve was 2 hrs behind. You know how heart drs are. So i just canceled because i was going to my sisters house. I feel great !!!! I think excerise really makes a difference. I dont feel bad this week. Maybe Its because i have been excercising and picking myself up. From the shock from all the bad news. That really floored me and put me in depression again. I think i have come to terms with everything. Thanks for assking Hugs Barb

Hello Ila, and welcome to the September board. Where have you been all these months!! We are a very welcoming group, and personally for myself (redundant speaker that I am!!) I find this board to be the most helpful of all the forums on OH. The thing I love about it is we are all in the same place, basically, facing the same issues (snacking, grazing, whatever you want to call it), flabby skin, dealing with people who are now treating us like people who are worth something, rather than fat blobs. It's a total mind trip, that's for sure. I hope you come back and get to know us. By the way, I saw where you said you had knee problems -- I just had knee replacement surgery. Ouch!! Give me weight loss surgery any day of the week!!! love donna

looking good Barb! love donna

You look good. Really. Mine has the folds and the wrinkles and all that good stuff. LOL but it't better to have all the loose skin. I know I was a prisioner in my own body. Feels good to have broken out. So how are you feeling? Hope you're doing good. You look terrific so let's hope your doctor can do something about your heart. Sincerely, Koukla
