I don't post everyday-I never seem to have a lot of bright, inspirational or traumatic events to share!! But, I wanted to take a moment to thank you and to tell you how i visit this forum several times a day-just to share what is happening in your lives.

 

dunnyboctor: it really helps to see \keep track of what we're eating. Plus I just finished Grad School and you make me long to be back at Uni!! You're smart and funny and you along with the others help to dispel to hideous myth that fat people=developmentally delayed.  I hope you decide to go to med school-we all need physicians like you!

Kix: i am breathless everytime i see what you have achieved. breathless. everytime i believe that there is no way or to set my goals way way lower-so as not to be disappointed i look at you, and i think, go for it. Thanks for busting another myth -fat people lack self discipline and ambition. I hope you get that job!!  ps I'm thinking a nice photo of you would be great to see.

pjburton, kmrubesne, jandell and that nice redhead-all of you provide a source of inspiration to me every single day.  

All of you make me soooo happy I found this forum.  Before I met you lot I was on another forum where I felt, lost and often unwelcome.  Now I am home.

Happy Monday and I hope you enjoy this wave of warmth and adoration being floated your way from frosty Toronto Canada.

 I agree completely about each one of those terrific ladies!!!!!!!!   I’m sure everyone here helps each other more than we all know, You are an inspiration to me even if you don't know it, Like when you posted How do I measure this?  well you can’t or maybe someone can but I can't either, and I always feel like how am I going to post this today that’s why a lot of times I don't figure my calories either, But knowing that someone else is having the same difficulties was like whew I'm not alone,  So see you helped me too.  

 

 

 Thank You Estelle

Thank you so much!  And congratulations on finishing graduate school.  I LONG for that day!!! And I totally agree about the other ladies and about everyone here.  This is such a great forum, full of genuine support.  Sometimes this place keeps me sane when I'd really go nuts about one weight-loss related thing or another.  You are a sweetie and doing and excellent job!  All the best, Jenn

Jenn, not to frighten you or anything, but it took me seven years to finish my graduate degree.  I am hoping you will NOT follow my poor example!   I'm so burned out that even though I would love to go back to school and become a Physician's Assistant, there's just no way I can commit to full-time study for another 2-3 years.   Kix

What a heart warming post!  I too look to all of you for inspiration and to feel accepted.  Its been such a motivating force in my decision to follow thru with my WLS.  I know that this wonderful group of people truly understand what we are all going thru. I have laughed, cried, felt special and felt relief when I read all of your comments and happenings in your lives.  We are truly a happy family!  HUGS to all  Jeanine

My goodness, please breathe, and deeply!  Breathing deeply increases your oxygen, which helps burn calories! As for all the nice things you said about me, well, color me .  I'm not any more special than anyone else here on the board.  Everyone here is outstanding, and I'd never make it on this lifetime road to better health without each and every one of you. Hugs, Kix PS:  Isn't there a picture of me on my profile?  The last one I had taken was me at Manitou Springs standing in front of the train.

OK, I am officially senile now.  I thought I had a photo of me on my profile, but after actually looking at my profile, I remembered I moved the photos to make room for my Oakland pictures. Sorry about that!  I put the photo of me in Manitou Springs back on my profile. Kix
