This site is great!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just found this web site last night. I stayed on looking around for 3 hours. I didn't get to bed till midnight. I always fall asleep early, like before 10. I just could not get enough of this. I have been reading posts and information regaurding WLS. I have my initial PCP visit on 10-5-04. My ins says I have to be under a dr surpervised diet for 6 mos before even considering me for the WLS. I prayed for 2 solid months before making the appt. I prayed just for the strength to call and make the appt. I don't know if this is right. I keep praying on it. I finally discussed it with my husband. He said that if I feel it is the right way to go, I should do it. I told him there is a chance of serious complications. He said that he would pray for me. My response was one not of christian nature. I said that he doesn't even go to church. Then he said he would have to change that. Please pray for me and my husband Bruce, that he'll finally open his heart to God and that I am doing the right thing. God bless all of you on this message board.

SOOOOO cool to hear about your husband's interest in going to church with you. Do you mind my asking what faith you are? I'm a born again believer. Corinn, Not doubt that the Lord has used you to reflect his light. And yes dear, I will pray for the WLS and the Ins. issues. Remember though, stay humble and the Lord will continue to work in your husband's life through you. It is an awesome thing to see someone you love dearly accept Christ. The joy is beyond descrption. In his hands, Sally

Sally, thanx for the encouragement. I know everything is in His hands. I am Methodist. I was baptised when I was 5. I can still remember it. I have 4 kids. 16 boy, 15 girl, almost 8 boy, 3 girl. I know God wants me to rear them in the christian faith, so I have to be around to do that. I want to be sucessful with weight lost but so far, not happening. I pray this is the way to go. Still some douts. I feel quilty about the douts, b/c I know I should give this all over to God. Thanx again for being there. God bless you. Corinn

Hi Sally, Good to see you posting. Will Im still surving homeschooling. It's been a little rough but I know the Lord will see me through this. How are you doing? Blessings Geri

Corinn, Welcome and Im so glad God brought you to this board. It's exciting how God might be using this surgery to bring your husband into a love relationship with our all mighty Lord. I ask Dear Lord, that you will soften Bruce's heart, that your Holy Spirit will guide him into a very special relationship with you. I pray that he will be able to hear your still quiet voice, and feel the love that you so much have for him. I pray that you will bless Corinn and continue to guide her and give her your Peace and wisdom regarding this surgery. Continue to open up the doors that will guide her closer to this new journey and close them if it is not your will. In Jesus's name Amen Please continue to come here and keep us post dated on you and your husband. Can't wait to get to know you. Blessings Geri
