Congradulations on your surgery date. The Lord is truely good!
I like Unjury for my protien drink. They have chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry, Chicken soup and unflavored. It is made for WLS patients and uses high quality protien in its mix. I use the Bariatric Advantage vitamins also. They are good and good for you. I feel it is important to use vitamins that are specifical made for WLS patients. They know what we need differently than a non- WLS pt. I did try to use the soft chewy chocolate calcium carbonate chews you get at the drug stores and walmart. I got a kidney stone. My urologist suggest calcium citrate.
I will be praying for you. This is an exciting time. May God Bless you.

Topic: Brother doing well after surgery
I wanted to up date all of you prayer warriors. My friend from chruch that I requested prayer for, has come out of surgery just fine. He is experiencing some pain but told him that was expected and will only get better. He will be released to go home from the hospital tomorrow and start his new life. Thank you again for all your prayers for him and me.
Mary the devotion for today was speaking directly to me. Thank you Holy Spirit. I have been having some relational problems at home and at work. I will take the scripture to heart and ask God for his help because I can not do it myself.
Congradulation on the new grand child.

Congratulations on completing your latest project. May it be the beginning of many more to come! :)
My writer friend (and mentor) included me in the Acknowledgments page of his book, which was very nice. He used my middle name (which is what he calls me)--a little disappointing, but it's all good.
Do you mind me asking how much you had to pay, to self-publish your book, and for how many copies?
Thank you for all your great ideas!
Blessings,
Mary

Thanks Mary. I believe I'm going to love my sleeve too. I also think that's a wonderful offer from you. I just started my business about a year ago. I've only had 3 clients thus far and one of 'em has actually paid...wooo-whooo!!! It's such a blessing to me because I do so love to write. My own book was self-published back in August of 08 and I never got a chance to promote it as I was busy helping others with their writing projects.
Today I just finished a 300+ page novel (for my paying client) and we are in the final copy-editing stages. I prayerfully have two potential clients coming in over the next couple of months. The idea of expanding my services, is quite appealing, I just need some more time (and clients).
God bless you again and thanks for offering. Oh, uh...and the next time you help someone out try to get paid for it. As a matter of fact, ask the person you've helped if he might consider giving you a little 'thank you for your help' blurb in his project. This will get your name out there. Next, you should get some simple business cards printed and hand them out to friends, your church fellowship, etc. You'd be surprised how quickly the word will get out about your writing. You know people will take you more seriously when you take your gift (writing) more seriously. Allow your gift to make room for you and God will expand your borders! Start looking on line also to get an idea of what proofreaders, copy-editors, etc. get paid. God bless!

It's "Nana," Vickie. "Grandma" sounds too old. LOL I will be most happy to kiss his little face for you and me both. :)

Hi, Ronnie.
You're going to love your Sleeve! :) I visited your web site--very impressive! I enjoyed reading the 3 writing samples, also. Hey, if you ever get so busy that you need an extra hand, I've done a bit of editing myself and would be happy to help. I haven't a clue as to how to get my name out there, as a proofreader/editor, but I do love the work. I have edited recently, as a writer friend allowed me to edit his new book. I didn't charge him, though, because I wanted the experience.
God bless you, in your endeavors. :)
In Christ,
Mary

Amen Karyn. I love that you are closer to God. I feel the same way and find it amazing that when one is sincere about seeking God He really hears our prayers. I would have never imagined something like this for myself 10 years ago! I'm a firm believer that "...to everything there is a season..." (Eccles. 3) and this is the season for regaining optimal health! God bless.

Thanks so much for the well wishes Mary. Yes, I have an info pamphlet with the pre- and post-op instructions. I will be having the VSG done. Believe me, since I'm a writer I had a list of questions for my surgeon during our most recent consultation and he covered EVERYTHING. I'm really blessed to have all of you in my corner as well. Thanks again and I'll post as often as I can. God bless! If any of you are interested, please visit my website at www.divinecreationsonline.org for info on my writing.

Congratulations, Grandma Mary!
There is no greater miracle than the birth of a baby. Give him a kiss for me!
