Missouri Pen Pal needed

Would love to have a pen pal. 3 years post op and looking for support. If interested email me :)

Hi!       I was just 'surfing' tonight, haven't visited this site for quite awhile. You said that you had your surgery 3 years ago?  How are you doing?   I do hope that all is well and I would love to hear of your experiences.   I had my surgery in March of '05.  It's been wonderful, mostly good experiences, but now am struggling a bit.  (I guess that it's not 'magic'...we still have to work!)  I hope you'll drop me a line.   Talk to you soon.   ~Kathy~     

Hi, Thank you so much for writing me..Yes I had my surgery 3 years ago, however, not doing so good. I did get down 143 pounds;but, have gained some back. Due to work issues had to stop working out and attending support group :(  A few weeks ago, I decided to retake charge of my life and join this site.  Thought a pen pal could help..2 weeks ago started riding my excercise bike again, I made a goal to do at least 20 minutes a day..and 6 days ago, went back to basics and I am doing nothing but protein, to jump start the weight loss again..Don't know what starting weight I truly was at, but I am feeling a bit better..Going through alot of emotional stuff right now..4 and half months ago, my husband and I moved from AZ to MO.. and now I am going back to AZ and getting a divorce..This isn't any easy time for me.. I know I can tolerate sugar and alcohol, and boy is it hard...Receiving your email put a most welcome smile on my face.  Thank you! I look forward to getting to know you and your story and if I can help you please let me know.. Take care and God Bless Always,  Deanna Marie :)
