Hi everyone - my name is denise - i have been reading off and on for over a year ... just wanted to introduce myself ... so many of these posts have been an inspiration to me, and I am working to get back on track to lose weight in order to have a doc OK me for surgery ...

trying to get real with myself!

ok thanks again for the support and HAPPY HOLIDAYS to you all!!
two reminders for myself:
(1) ME: in charge of surrender .... GOD: in charge of results
(2) operate from a mindset of empowerment, not shame

Oh you are very QUIET if you've been reading a year without throwing in some advice or opinions!! Join the fun. We like new folks. Good luck with the weight loss. I just got banded and feel great, but we have all sorts of non ops, pre ops, different surgeries on this board.
