Thank you Annie...i like that avatar...tell me about it please

Hi Annie, My avatar is a pic of a lapel pin I had designed that is a little reminder of what my starting weight of 680 was.I lost 300lbs on my own 3 years before I decided to have wls. If you are intrested in a key chain or magnet or pin please feel free to email me at [email protected] I wish you the best of luck with your surgery. I loved what you said about your husband that he is the Wind Beneath Your Wings. I know my husband was my guiding light with my surgery.                                Annie

i see that you are gifted and talented with a loving heart. I read your story about the pin and i definitely want both!!  i loved your pictures

Keep in mind everyone reacts differently to this ...... the first 2 weeks I wanted to DIE!  However, this is my 3rd week and I can get up all by myself, I can do light housework, and I am walking walking walking.  As much as you might hurt and not want to walk, I swear walking will help you feel much better and a lot faster!  I loved the sugar free ice pops.... they really helped me around the 2nd week when not eating was really messing with my mind. After the 2nd week your Doc. should change your diet and then things will be much better ;)  Since June 4th I am down almost 45 lbs!!! This has been a long journey and now I can see that it is def. worth it! You are going to love your WLS!

45 lbs!!...that is so good..guess i better get my housework done Now!! 

Congratulations on your surgery and I will keep you in my thoughts on Wednesday. You will be fine and you have a the great dr. during the surgery . ( He's the Best )
