To Kristen and Teri

This next week will be full of excitement, anxiousness and yes, even some fear. But know that we are all here for you right now. I went to the main board and told them about my wonderful and beautiful RI girls who were having surgery and asked them to sign your page so you could see just how many people were pulling for you. I'm so proud of both of you and will be there to see you when you've completed that part of your journey. I'm very excited for you both and wish you all the best......very speedy recovery to both of you!!! I'll see you both very soon. Much love............. Your angel, Shel P.S.........we haven't fogotten about our dear friend Carol who will be having surgery this next week as well. I want to pass on my wishes for a very speedy recovery for her and wish her great success in her journey!! We're all in this together. My best to ALL of you!

Kristen and Teri, OMG I can't believe it's almost here for you guys! I'm so excited for you!! I can't wait to hear how everything goes for you guys. Please do me one HUG favor??? PLEASE PLEASE keep us informed. I've been a part of this site for about 3 years and I've seen so many times after people have their surgery they no longer post. I mean I understand because as you lose weight you get more energy and your busy doing other things. But for people like me and Shell who have yet to have our day, we look forward to reading about the changes you will be going through and learning about what we are about to embark on from real people and not a text books. I'm so freakin excited for you, you don't even know!!!!! HUGE HUGS! ~~NaDene~~

NaDene, Oh I will definetaly be posting everything here...I promise. I know that's what I looked for, people who have already or just went through the surgery so that I could get an idea as to what to expect. I thank you very much for your prayers.... Hugs! Teri

i'll definitely be posting.. good and bad. what i was thinking, how i was feeling, how i dealt with whatever i need to deal with.. i don't want to just fade away from the people here.. i want to help. i've read so many profiles and learned so much.. it's only fair for me to give back now. :hugs: kristen

Shell, thank you so much....its so funny trying to type when your fingers are shaking lmao... I just cleaned out my closet...all my clothes are gone...cept for some special things...I can't turn back now or i'll be bare assed LOL.. I can't wait to see ya at the hospital... Love ya, Teri

Teri: Bare assed is frowned upon in society today........but I'll laugh my tail feathers off, no doubt. But on a more serious note....you can bet...you WON'T turn back and you WILL succeed. I have no doubt about it. You're beginning a whole new era in your life next week. I'm so proud of you...bare assed and all. And I'll be seeing you at the hospital. Make sure you email me all your info so I can find you. I'll bring a goodie or two. And I'll try not to make you laugh, but I can't guarantee anything. That's not in my angel contract. Sorry. *wink* Just take it easy this weekend. Breathe. Have a wonderful Easter and enjoy the family. I'll see you soon. {{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}} Shel
