Avitars!!!

I felt the same way before.  Many people do not use a personal photo.  I like your Tinkerbell avatar, it's adorable.

You will do it when you are comfortable and we can't wait to see you! BTW I have met you and you are a BEAUTIFUL woman! After your surgery you are going to be stunning! Never ever be embarassed to be you. Even now you shine inside and out. Always remember that, OK? See you on Thursday, right?

Thanks for the nice words Heather.  I can't wait to feel beautiful.  Tomorrow is my last appt and then fingers cross I will go to insurance this time.

Sorry I can't make it this Thursday.

Keeping fingers and toes crossed for you! We'll miss you on Thursday. I know it's hard to feel beautiful, that does take a long time. No matter what other people tell you it's hard. Even now I have a hard time seeing what other people see. It does get easier but still a challenge every day. Take care and hope to see you soon.

Re:See I'm scared to put my pic up. What if someone I know see's me? I'm still in the embarassed to be me phase. Maybe after I have the surgery I'll feel a little more at ease to do it.



Then they will wave to ya and invite you to happy hour while totally wishing they were more like you They will get nervous when you talk about WLS and you can calm them down with another drink and then they might get sick and you will have to drive them home and leave them on their front porch propped up against their doorbell so they can thank you for it the next day ...hmmm on second thought maybe you should just wear a disguise
LOLOLOLOL

*Im kidding with ya honey. hehe You can add any avatar you want it doesnt have to be a pic of you although I am sure your BEAUTIFUL!!! If your wondering if a particular person will see you on here try looking up their email account on here. But dont hide because of what you think others will think of you. Girl they could not make an avatar box big enough for me. I had to crop my own head! hehehe ((((Hugs)))))) ~Jilly~

I have been trying and had the kids try. I think I finally figured it out and the pics are to big. The Char (because she's awesome and helped the technologically impaired me :)  ) made it smalled and even did one head shot and one full body. I think the full body gets kind of dumpy when you shrink it  or maybe thatt is my imagination. Anyway she emailed both to me and I have been trying to get it up but I can't get it to where it will come up in the browse box. One day I will get it.I gave up on the before and after. There are some pics in my profile of course I need to learn how to turn them. I can get those up at least. It is very frustrating but then my stress is high with Mom 's cancer and planning her help. Al least I made it to Gaithersburg since I will be doing it a lot more. Anyway one day it will be up on the meantime feel free to check out my profile.

 Christy it was good to see you at the Drs.I tried to wait tosee how it went but my son wanted to get home and I had to get to the trainers. Hope all went well. As far as the pic  do it when you are ready but like Heather said you are a beautful woman inside and out. You have a kind , soft energy.
I do live tinkerbell though :)
Have a great day
Love Laurie
