You have such a great way of being supportive with your posts. Your word sure go along way. You truly are blessed with how to word things. I just love your posts as you know ... they really keep me from getting discouraged. I just had to thank you for this post about  Independence day... For some has already come and they are claiming their independence from obesity as they loose. Some of us are still pre op and are really looking forward to our true independence day. I have lost 50 lbs and I am stuck but I have gained a few things from weight loss. I can fit behind the wheel to drive again. I can shop with out a wheel chair or drive cart. I walked the mall not too long ago and before loosing any weight on the pre surgical diet I could not even walk to my mailbox (about 100 feet) without being in excruciating pain. I am so proud that I bought my first pair of jeans too this past week and they zip. You were my inspiration to even try them on. I really think that was my first wow moment..
You keep up the wonderful posts and keep us encouraged as I hope we all can encourage you too.
