Hi again Myrtis, I really want you to know what a wonderful thing you did by posting this topic. Like you, you are experincing things you thought would never happen or things we took for granted. Until a person has walked in the shoes of an obese person they will never know what a feeling it is to be free of so many disabiltys that come from being obese. I may never be a normal size but I know I am so much happier and healthier since surgery and since I started to take control in 1998. I would love to shout from the roof tops how much this surgery has done for me. When I see a SMO person my heart aches for them. I would love to wave a magic wand and help all obese people but I know wls is a personal choice. I will be the first to tell you the idea of wls scarred me to death and it is scarry stuff. Being a slave to a cane and having to take injections 4 times a day and going blind because of diabetes is scarry stuff too. My wish for this wonderful post is I hope with all my heart it will touch a obese person and help them make the choice to save thier life with wls. I also belive those who choose wls you have to want it more than anything and know it is hard work.                                                   Annie

It is never too late to be what you might have been.?

Thank you all for your heartfelt replies. I hope for all the MO people to read this thread and feel the inspiration I feel.  You have to feel the suffering before surgery and the joy after wls. What a gift! Thank you again Myrtis
