~Hello Everyone! Missed you all!!

I just wanted to post a quick update since my "lifeline" is back. I have sure MISSED talking to all of you and seeing who is doing what etc. Some of my friends keep me updated (Melissa and Sherr) and so I say prayers for all of you and ask about you often, but its not the same as being on here myself..... My surgery was November 29th and I have lost 81 lbs as of yesterday......I lost 44 of it before surgery, so 37 since. I am starting to see changes in my physical appearance as well as emotional. I feel a lot happier than I have been in years. I also have noticed that I sure feel good to do the things I COULDNT do before. Who knew I would miss things like making dinner standing the whole time and running after the 4 year old? Although I spent a good week after surgery with infections and on medications, I can say now that I would do it all over again in a heart beat. I hope this finds you all well, safe, and WARM.....we were without power (which is our heating system and water-which is well) for 3 days and it was miserable, so I am praying that this storm we are getting right now, doesnt cause the problems we had last time-and that goes for all of you reading this as well. Well, I look forward to hearing from all of you. You are in my thoughts and its good to talk to you again. Love, Jan
