Topic: Two years out!!!
Today is my two year anniversary!! I had my RNY two years ago today. Thank you Lord & Thank you Dr. DeWitt!! It has been a tough year. Lots going on in my personal life. I have not reached my goal (yet, I WILL GET THERE) but I have been able to maintain my weight. I have not gained. I consider that a major accomplishment considering all that is and has gone on in my life this past year. I still need to lose between 20 -25 lbs. Wish I could find a really good local support group but there just isn't one near me, the closest one is almost 1 hour away. Anyway, I praise God for what he has allowed me to accomplish over the past two years!! I have gone from a 24/26 (and rising) to a 10/12. To God be the Glory!!!

Hey Shelley. Good luck with walk. I was born in Long Beach but now live in Southaven, MS (Memphis metro).
Learn real quick to LOVE the accent...hehehe!
Everything is cheaper. There is a support north of there, but not quite sure. I have seen it listed here at this web site. Plus, ASBS site will list surgeons and then you can get support.
Good luck.
Learn to LOVE the accent. Embrace it.

Topic: May be moving to Mississippi!!
I just got back from visiting my folks in Mississippi and find that I may be making a move to share the load caring for my grandma and help my mom. Coming from Southern California I wonder what type of culture shock I can expect. We are currently looking at Clinton (as my niece and nephew attend school there and my daughter would love to attend school with them). I lived in the south only a short time when I was my daughters age (10) and have an idea of the "culture" but would welcome thoughts, resources and the like.
I will certainly connect with the OHers in MS if we make the move as I find the support necessary to stay on track.
Thanks to all!

Topic: RE: update on me
Melissa,
I am very sorry about your miscarraige. I can't imagine what you are feeling but you are in my thoughts. A friend of mine miscarried and was later Blessed with twin boys. God is awesome and has a plan for you and your husband. May you feel Gods love in your life today.

Topic: RE: Vacation
Hi Denise! Hope you have fun on your vacation. Let me know how you do on the 5dpt. I want to try it but I'm so carb addicted, I probably wouldnt last 1 day. Also in another post I saw you were hunting the Carnation instant Breakfast...not sure about Hattiesburg, but in Laure Walmart, it is on the breakfast foods isle...cereal is on one side & on the opposite is the carnation. I think they only have the NSA chocolate for $5. or $4. something. Not sure who else has it. Anyway, have fun!
