Saw this and thought about US and our search to be healthy.

The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough.- Randy Pausch

How appropriate!  I think that we all face those brick walls and how we handle them are most important to all of us who are post-op.  I know that I am seriously frightened about what happens after the "honeymoon period".  Especially after the period that I have experienced during the last few months, with the stress and strain of my life since layoff.  I am hoping that I have learned a few very good lessons and can go forward into the next phase of my journey with my eyes WIDE OPEN.  I know that there will be challenges and a few brick walls.  I just hope that with my peeps and my own inner being I can break through those walls and be as successful as you have.  Thanks for bringing this comment to us.  WOW!  It is an eye-opener and makes ya think. 

Hugs, Mari

This is soooo true...and I've broken through so many walls, so I don't know why I find this one particularly difficult! I guess it's a weight-baring wall!! Haha. But I really appreciate the post...and thanks George for pointing me to it!

Hi Stephanie,

I really like this quote.  Thanks for sharing.

People are so worried about what they eat between Christmas and the New Year, but they really should be worried about what they eat between the New Year and Christmas. ~Author Unknown
