I know I have been missing in action for a while.  Please know that I do peak in on ya'll and am SOOOO proud of all of you and what you are accomplishing in your post-surgical lives!  Amy - Debtfree.. I remember your cries for help in keeping accountable to the gym... I am AMAZED at your posts and very proud of you!!  Nancy Gene --- you go girl!!!  

I apologize for being gone - I have a weird work schedule and just moved to the NW side...so I am in the throes of putting things back together again.  I promise I will see all my WeightWise buddies soon at a support group...  Lynette and I see each other each week, Luanne and I as well.  They try to keep me on the straight and narrow.  

I found a couple of pictures during the move that made me sit down on my bed and cry like a baby.  I so remember those days when I was so overweight it was a chore to get out of bed in the mornings!  I KNOW I would not have accomplished as much without this group here... I know some come and go but in my heart..you are my rocks!!!

Please know that I am here... I do apologize for being scarce...  I will not be at Walk from Obesity unless (by some miracle) my schedule next week changes.  But know that I will be with those who are walking and THIS CAN BE DONE!  It has been a long 3+ years and I have slacked off some, but I do have a couple people behind me kicking me back into gear.

Love to all.. for those of you who are in the beginning of your journey.. please know that SUPPORT is going to be your best friend...  we all know where you have been.. and where you are going.. there is NOTHING you cannot ask ..  someone will have been through it....

See you soon.... all my love... Ruth

It's good to hear from you, Ruth. Even though I hadn't seen you post in a while, I felt sure you were still around. :) 
Blessings,

Hi Ruth,

It's good to hear from you.  I'm not as active on the board as I once was either.  Seems like the more I lose, the busier I get...hmmm, wonder why? 

Keep in touch!
