Hmmmmm.....so many people come to mind. Imma have to break the rules....Teri D, Naomi, Telaya, Cleo (I know I'm forgetting some) and all the lapbanders that have lost so much weight. I take my quick loss for granted sometimes. It seems that they have to struggle tooth and nail to get the weight off much harder than some of the other WLS. Successful lapbanders are truly an inspiration to me. I love seeing thier successes!!

I will have to say Faith.  God intended me to meet her.  So much happened to me personally on my journey.  I faced the devastating ending of my marriage, dealing with new body changes, and challenges in my career.  It was almost like she lived my life before me.  She encouraged me publically and more importantly privately.  She became in tune with me to the point of beng able to call me on acting all hard, when I wasnt feeling strong. We have become like sisters and the only thing we knew about each other in the beginning was we had the same doctor. 

I truly believe we are there for each other in every way.  That is one reason I can never bash BAF or OH.  I met some genuine people here.  I have been encouraged by MANY but inspired by one.  She has a good heart and is a good person. 

 

     
Working on me - want to be better in everyway not just physically!!!  Its a process no time to judge or be judged!!!!

Hey Brenda I can agree with that!!!!  I never thought I would meet people off of Baf....that I would truly connect with you know!!!!  It is so nice to find people who truly understand your struggles and genuinely care.


Faith's always so supportive every post is in  reference to someone else.  She reached out to me during my surgery and I never expected that!!!!!

I loves you Brenda and you know this!  Thank you and you have been there for me too.  I have met "true" friends on BAF and you are one of them.  Because all of my prior WLS so called friends don't really have much to say to me any more.  I am thankful to have found you and we are able to relate to each other with such a special bond.

I'm going to take the 5th there to many people here that really inspired me.  And still is there the gentlemen, the lady that have done fantastic. Some are why,some are to the point,  some love to exercise, and some are just coming out of lurking I feel inspired.  That's why when someone does something so great I read a post I tell then they inspire me. They are great people here on BAF BOARD.I've seen hurt, pain, sickness,death and a lot of praying people for our sick and the one's that's have passed. They help pull you up by your boot strips and keep you moving. When I' depressed there  those have hard kids.
with illenedd that work that bring me into mind I'm still blessed. My muscle pains. firbromyagia. my brother Cancer battle, and my mother Alzheimer(Sp?) and straight up depression. THANKS BAF IT A GREAT PLACE TO BE. SORRY I COULDN'T SAY JUST ONE NAME I PROMISE TO LET THEM NOW AS TIME GOES BY.
I'll pick you all one off at a time
