Please Pray

Hey everyone, This is Missie, I am not on here much I am usually pretty busy. For those of you that do not know me I had my surgery March 29,2006 through Dr. Sherer.. who is by the way AMAZING... I have been doing relaly well with my surgery and have not had NO trouble at all do to the surgery. However the last month or so has been really hard on me, I lost to family members in one month. HOwever the last one that I lost on Oct 12 was a very very close uncle of mine, that helped raise me as a child. This is one of my dads brothers. So I have went home and prepared and planned a funeral. Well since then I have been having a lot of feelings going on in my head. I am soooooooo glad that I had this surgery HAVE NEVER WANTED ANYTHING MORE..however my husband is back on nights working so im home alone with the kids in bed at night. Well I have been having trouble with eatting. As most of you know before I was having trouble not eatting enough..however I have lately been finding myself eatting more and mroe. I am still in the same size jeans, not realy sure if I am gainning weight, bc as yall know I do not get on a scale, HOwever im so scared of gaining weight. I have not been getting my water intake like I WAS BEFORE and my exercising is coming to a halt, well honestly it has came to a halt. I ahve so much things at my home, like the ab lounge and my urban rebounder that I got from Ms Brenda..that I lvoe but lately I havent been able to pull myself to get on them. It is really depressing. Can yall please just pray for me that I will get over this and pray that I do not gain no weight. I stay up most of the night now since my hsuband is at work, so i dont get much sleep which has been prettty normal sicne I have been a military spouse for so long, now that he is in the civilian world working and still working nights it just tends to stick with me. WEll I just wanted to post and ask everyone to say a little prayer for me at night when yall get a chance. Thanks to each and everyone of yall. I really appreciate it..especailly everyone that has made me feel welcome at the support meeting in meridian. Thanks once again everyone Luv and God Bless Missie aka Melissa

Hey Girl, You are going to make it. I will pray for you but your great and I know you will be fine. Joyce

Thanks Joyce..I seem to be doing ok today, I only had one egg, and a slice of wheat toast with blackberry perserves on it. 8 oz's of orange juice and for dinner I will probably have some rice with steamed veggies. Thanks for the prayers girl..Not feeling too well today, well see you on monday. missie

Hi Melissa, You sound like me with the equipment. Keep the faith and don't despair. Just know that you have people praying for your determination to succeed with your WLS and your heart to mend from grief. Believe in yourself and you will make it through this valley. Vivian S.

Thanks Vivian, that means a lot to me. I have seem to be getting better this week. Still not much of an appetate but I am making myself eat. I have been doing lots better with my water, so that makes me feel better just in it self. I did have a small bit of salad the other night and it was the best tasteing thing, will not eat it again, but it tasted great. It was surprising before I use to love italian dressing, and when i tried it the other night, couldnt stomach it so i use red wine vingerette. It was really good though. Once again thanks i apprecaite it. Melissa

Just thinking about you. Keep your chin up. Jane

Jane, thanks so much that means a lot to me.. melissa
