Hi guys!

 It's been forever since I've checked in here.  I hope all my La WLS peeps are doing well.  Happy weekend!

 Girl, you look great!!! My husband & I were just wondering how you are doing. How did your plastics go? I'll always appreciate the encouragement that you gave me about WLS. I feel like a different person - one with a lot more energy!

Well I am three weeks out and doing fine I have lost 31 pounds in 2 weeks. mrs. Shelia was very nice to me and kind. maybe because all the people that having been calling to get help anybody has an hard day. baby that is life we all have our days.

  I am doing wonderful.  God is great and with a lot of prayer, I have adjusted decently to a whole new way of life.  I used to wonder why all individuals who are overweight didn't consider the surgery.  Now, I would never encourage surgery without encouraging some deep soul searching and emotional planning beforehand.  My surgery has been about everything but the food.  Good thing I had perspective on food, because I have been putting out emotional fires since the weight started melting off.  Somedays some emotional event will still catch me by surprise.  I am better prepared for them, but they always lurk around the corner.  Plastics have helped to quiet some demons.  I now feel like I look "normal".  That is a start to really understanding who I am.  There are no truer words for me in describing my WLS experience - it is not sprint, but instead a journey!  

I hope you are well - catch me up.  What have you been up to?
