Hello Everyone!!!!
I am roux-en-Y and alittle more than 2 years(-90 lbs) out. My wieght has slowed down to where I guess you could say yo-yo up and down. I was thinking of going to Weigh****chers to help me get the rest of it off. My husband says we can't spare the extra spending. I currently am going to Indiana Business College(Columbus, IN) for a degree as a Medical Assistant and a degree as a Surgical Technition. I just work very part time so money is tight. I hope checking in here will help. Thank you so much for the welcome. I greatly appreciate it.
I hope can anyone else who may have questions about the surgery as well. Everyone's experience is somewhat the same but different too. I....hope that's understandable...lol.
Ecclesiastes 3:11 reads___He has made everthing beautiful in its time.....
Proverbs 25:16 reads____...Eat only as much as is sufficient for you, lest, being filled with it, you vomit it.
Ephesians 6:10 reads___...God is strong, and he wants you strong.

Rebecca,
Welcome to the Indiana Board. As Cheryl said, this board is very supportive of each other. We're a group of people who love keeping in touch with this message board, chatting through here, and by getting together in person. While we don't typically quote verses, most are God fearing people who have a stong faith in the power of prayer. I firmly believe that if it had not been for the prayers of my husband, kids, and my friends here on this board, I would had died the week of October 6th of this year.
I would like to urge you to become active on this board..let us get to know you. If you feel the need to share with us on a regular basis how your weight is doing, you are welcome to do that. We won't critisize you if you gain a pound. That's not what we're here for! We will be thrilled for your accomplishments and 'wow's' though! We won't say 'Don't eat that cookie!'..but we might say 'hey..was that sugar-free? got the recipe?'. If you look back on past posts, I believe that you'll see that another forum may not be neccesary. Some people on here do visit other forums..myself, I just forget to and pretty much stick to just the Indiana board. I know there are several like me with that too. So if there is another forum set up, I do wish you alot of luck with it and I hope you get many members.
For your own accountability, you may want to visit tickerFactory.com and set you up a ticker to record your goal & weight loss. You may also include the ticker in your signature line here on OH (see mine?). When you set it up, copy/paste the PICTURE of the ticker on TickerFactory.com into your signature line on OH (under user settings). It doesn't work to copy/paste the code..just the picture. As you lose weight, you can go back to TickerFactory.com and edit it..and it will automatically update your ticker here.
Again, welcome...
