Still alive.....

Sorry I have been MIA, but I have been through some MAJOR crap over the past couple of months....lost job, lost home, moved back to Athens...still pretty much homeless BUT I did find a new job here and hopefully things will continue to improve. I have missed y'all ALOT. Anyway.......as far as the weight loss goes I am 8 months post op now and down 139 pounds!!!! I have gone from 336 pounds to 197 now. It's hard to believe. Wearing size 16 pants and XL tops...this is the smallest I have been in FOREVER!!!!!!! Still having some food issues but you know what?!?!?!? WHO CARES...no more diabetes, no more knee pain, no more acid reflux.....SIZE 16 pants...I don't even care anymore if all I can eat is soup *lol*. I have missed y'all SO much....can't wait until I get to make another monthly gathering *sigh*. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers........believe me I still need them!!! Love y'all, Shree

Hi Shree, I'm so sorry to hear about all you have been through! I'll be praying for you, that things will get better! Take care of you and pray Thur all the times you go Thur! (Good & Bad) There is a reason we go Thur things, we don't always understand them or even like them, but for some reason it's here. Just keep your chin up, This will most likely be something you will help someone else with. (same situation) (the reason) Have faith.............of just a mustard seed, and you shall move mountains! Your sister in Christ!, Kathy

Thanks so much for reminding me to have faith...sometimes it is hard!!!

Hey Shree- I only meet you once, but I am so sorry to hear about all the issues you've had over the pass months. I am glad that things are improving for you. I hope you can maybe make it soon to one of the monthly gatherings. We miss you too and I will be sure to add your name to my prayer list. Stay strong ((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))) Vanessa

Thanks for the prayers...I am a firm believer that it works wonders!!!!!!! Hope to see you in Feb.
