 Hi Cindy,

So glad to see your post.  I was just thinking about you a couple of weeks ago.  Congratulations on your grandbaby.  She looks like a sweetie.  I am thrilled for you that you are a healthy grandma who can enjoy her and be around to watch her grow.

I have struggled over the last year or so with gaining about 20 lbs.  Went back to school and to much snacking while studying.  I need to get motivated to get more active and get this off.  Just can't stay motivated long enough to lose consistently.  Regardless, I still feel much better and am much healthier.

Again, good to hear from you.  God's blessings to you.

Hi Peggy,
I know exactly what you mean about battling keeping the weight off and even gaining. I have gained as much as 35 pounds and had to reloose it....it always seems to come back on though. It never ends! But, yes, I agree, life is so much better now! It was good to hear from you. God bless!
Love, Cindy

Wow Cindy, what an amazing transformation from your signature picture to your profile picture!  That is amazing!  What an inspiration...and congrats on becoming a grandma! 

Hi Cindy, This is so funny, but my mom's name is Cynthia Snyder, too!  We live in Anderson, though.  Dr Jones is my surgeon too.  I have not had surgery yet because I am so torn over which surgery to have!  I've completed my 6 mos. with Dr Gomez and it all just needs preauthorized with insurance.  Can you please tell me if you had any problems/complications with your rny?  Was it open or lap?  How long were you in the hospital and how long until you could go back to work?  Thank you so much for any help or advice.  I haven't talked to anyone that has been a patient of Dr Jones, so I appreciate all you can tell me.  Sincerely, Laura

It's good to meet you, Laura. To answer all your questions about my experience with RNY, the best thing to do is to go to my profile and read from October 2005 on. That explains in great detail everything that you have asked. Keep in touch! God bless! Love, Cindy

Congratulations on becoming a Grandmother, I now have a grandson isn't it just the best. I love being a grandmother. It's great to see how well u are doing
